Library happenings...
May 24th was National Simultaneous Storytime. Now in its 23nd successful year, it is a colourful, vibrant, fun event that aims to promote the value of reading and literacy. This year the ALIA selected The Speedy Sloth by Rebecca Young to be read for NSS.

Our classes enjoyed the story this week. We talked about the importance of running our own race and striving to be the best version of ourselves, like Spike "The Speedy Sloth".
The Year 1's also drew and described their own sloth.
