National Simultaneous Storytime

PPN students and staff had a great time celebrating National Simultaneous Storytime today! This annual event encourages reading and literacy, highlights the value and fun of books and creates community, while promoting Australian authors and illustrators.

Our students joined over 2 million other children across Australia and New Zealand in a live-streamed reading of the fantastic picture book ‘The Speedy Sloth’ written by Rebecca Young and illustrated by Heath McKenzie.

Learning how to draw Spike from illustrator Health McKenzie himself was a highlight. As was the presence of three of our own ‘speedy sloths’ at school!
