LITERACY

National Simultaneous Storytime

Last week, our school community participated in National Simultaneous Storytime (NSST). Every year a picture book, written and illustrated by an Australian author and illustrator, is read simultaneously in libraries, schools, pre-schools, childcare centres, bookshops and many other places around the country. 

National Simultaneous Storytime is a vibrant, fun event that aims to promote the value of reading and literacy. St Gabriel’s School was one of 31,865 locations who shared a reading of the picture Family Tree, written by Josh Pyke and illustrated by Ronojoy Ghosh.
