What to Expect
Saturday Storytime is a delightful early literacy session designed especially for children aged 0 to 5 years. It offers a wonderful opportunity for little ones to engage with stories, sing rhymes, and explore new learning experiences in a welcoming environment.
These sessions are casual and relaxed, encouraging children and their parents to enjoy quality time together while fostering a love of reading and language development. The event is perfect for families looking to introduce their young children to the joys of books and storytelling.
Activity Details
The storytime runs every Saturday from 10:30 to 11:00 am, continuing weekly until December 26, 2026, except on public holidays. No bookings are required, making it easy for families to drop in and participate.
Parents are asked to arrive about 10 minutes early to ensure the session starts on time, and all children must be supervised by a parent or guardian throughout the event. Due to limited space, prams should be left at home.
