National Simultaneous Storytime

We had an absolutely fabulous time celebrating National Simultaneous Storytime throughout last week.  After reading the story, “Whitney & Britney Chicken Divas”, classes from the lower school joined in with creating their own amazing singing chickens, danced chicken dances, completed on-line puzzles and decorated the Library space with gorgeous colouring in pages. 

  

  

Interested students are still able to access craft and puzzle activities about Whitney and Britney through the National Simultaneous Storytime tab in the Dayboro State School Virtual Library (access via The Learning Place Blackboard).
