Gold Star & Little Stars award ceremony

I joined the Chermside Library team and local families at the Gold Star and Little Stars Award Ceremony this afternoon. The Gold Star and Little Stars reading program are important contributors to developing the literacy skills of children aged 0-12 years. Kids involved in the program read at least three books each month and also take part in reading challenges. This year 10,000 kids signed up for the program!

It was great to assist in giving out awards to kids and who read so many books or had so many books read to them during the program. Congratulations to Daniel Hoffman (the youngest pictured!) who won a $200 voucher.
