Join us for an exciting live Storytime adventure in Term 4.

Can too much TV really turn your eyes square? Fred had always thought the saying “Do not watch too much TV, or your eyes will go square” was just an old fable meant to scare kids. But when it suddenly comes true, Fred finds himself on a quest to re-shape his eyes and re-balance his life. 

Perfect for children aged 4-12 years (Foundation - Year 6), this live Storytime session is a fun way to explore screen time habits and the importance of balance in our digital world. 

Teacher resources will be sent 72 hours prior to the event to help you extend the learning beyond the story.
 

Date: Tuesday 1st December

Time: Multiple sessions available for Foundation, Years 1 & 2, Years 3 & 4, Years 5 & 6
