About this event

  • 1 hour

Join children across Australia as we read together to support children’s literacy with Aura Parker’s Bowerbird Blues.

National Simultaneous Storytime (NSS) is an annual event that supports children’s literacy by encouraging reading in a fun, community event by reading.

This year's book is : Aura Parker’s Bowerbird Blues. Borrow your copy here

Bowerbird Blues stars a beautiful bowerbird on the search for (you guessed it) BLUE! It’s a moving story of longing and connection, that unfolds as the bowerbird’s search sends him soaring across the sea, sky and city.

After storytime join Little Sprouts as we create pots for flowers and herbs.

Age range: Children 3 – 5 years old. Children must be supervised by a parent or guardian at all of our events.
