We also read two other books Mrs Honey’s Hat and Hooray for Hat. 

I then quizzed the children with a ‘guessing the hat’ quiz and not surprisingly they were able to answer the questions. 

We then got the children and teachers to dance and shake hand bells and egg shakers to three songs : I got a Hat about different types of hats, The Hat song about colours of hats and A Ram Sam Sam dance to finish off the session. 

It was a great morning to promote the value of reading and literacy ; the value and fun of books; the value of Australian authors and publishers; to promote Story Times in public libraries and provide opportunities to involve parents, grandparents and others to participate in and enjoy the occasion.

Our Cancer Morning tea held last Thursday was also well attended by Bogan Shire Council councillors and community members. 

Thankyou to our councillors and community for their donations.
