Around five hundred and fifty Early Learning and Junior School students, along with staff and parents, enjoyed a fun filled start to the day with National Simultaneous Story Time, an event which sees all libraries, schools, pre-schools, childcare centres, family homes, bookshops and many other places around Australia read the same book at the same time. 

At Tenison, we shook our maracas, danced the Mexican Hat Dance and sang La Cucaracha as we listened to our Director of Learning, Scott Dickson, read this year’s selected Book by author Matt Cosgrove “Alpacas with Maracas”.

So much fun and excitement was had by all! I think this year may have been our “best one ever” and what a great way to promote literacy and a love of reading.

Thank you to all who joined us today and we look forward to seeing you all at our Book Week Parade in August with the theme being “Reading is my Secret Power.”
