🌟 NIGHT 4 — LET’S GO! 🏉📚

Who has been enjoying our guest readers so far? We certainly have! 🙌

Tonight, we’re pretty excited… following in BPA’s epic storytelling footsteps, we have the just-as-entertaining Dylan Pietsch from the Wallabies! 💚💛

We are SO excited to have some of these incredible players getting behind our Book Week campaign and sharing the joy of reading with our students — especially our rugby-mad readers! 🏉📖

Night 3 🎶📚

Heading into Night 3 of our “Symphony of Bedtime Stories”, I am particularly delighted — and the five-year-old me who loved preschool is feeling just a little star-struck!

Those who have been in my classrooms over the years will know just how much I love this incredible children’s artist. Some of you might even remember dancing away to Mr Clickety Cane!

Tonight, we are thrilled to welcome Peter Combe OAM, a true classic of Australian children’s music, who will be bringing us our bedtime story. ❤️

I hope you all enjoy tonight’s story — and to my now grown-up students, I hope this brings back some wonderful memories of childhood, music and dancing along.

Prize box restock is an important job according to our TRP students 🧸 🌈 🥳 removing the party blowers as an option…. Also an important job 😉 Just doing my bit for society - and every parents sanity.

Welcome to Night 2 of our “Symphony of Bedtime Stories”! 🌙📚✨

Tonight, we’re very excited to have Dr Lauren from Bottle Tree Vets sharing the very applicable story of Hairy Maclary Rumpus at the Vet! 🐾🩺📖

How lucky are Lauren’s children to have such animated and engaging bedtime stories read to them! 💕 We’re so grateful that you’ve shared that special bedtime magic with us, Dr Lauren.

Thank you for joining our Symphony of Bedtime Stories! 🎶🌙

I hope you’re all as excited as we are for our first guest reader to kick off our nightly bedtime stories! 💚💛🏉

We’re absolutely thrilled to welcome Brandon Paenga-Amosa from the Wallabies, who will be reading We’re Going on a Bear Hunt! 🏉📖

There’s something incredibly uplifting about seeing our heroes get behind the things we’re striving towards and helping us inspire the next generation of readers.

A huge shout-out to the Wallabies for getting behind our campaign and supporting the importance of reading. 💚💛

So, settle in, get comfy and enjoy tonight’s story!

And to all my footy-mad students… I know you’re going to LOVE this one! 🏉💚💛
