Storylines family days in Auckland and Wellington
The Storylines Children's Literature Charitable Trust of New Zealand will be holding its annual family days throughout August. These events allow children and their families to meet New Zealand authors, hear live story tellers, and engage in other literary and craft activities.
RNZFB will have a stand at the Auckland and Wellington events this year. Children and their families will be able to read and touch tactile books, as well as engage in braille challenge activities. The Foundation will also be sharing information with teachers and parents about our Education Packs, which include a touch reading component. The Auckland stand will be hosted by Robin Nation, who is a Special Formats Producer at the Foundation. The Wellington stand will be hosted by Aven Pecor, producer of tactile books at the Kelburn Visual Resource Centre, Lisette Wesseling and Lauren Williams from the Foundation. If you're in the area, we'd love to see you, so feel free to come and say hello at either stand.
- Story Lines Family Day Wellington: 21 August, 10-3 PM in Capital E on Civic Square.
- Story Lines Family Day Auckland: Sunday 28 August 10-3 PM in the Auckland War Memorial Museum.
