Attending storytime sessions are a wonderful way to meet other people with children around the same age, not to mention all the benefits of the storytime itself for your child: hearing a variety of stories, rhymes and songs; joining in by singing, clapping and doing actions when being led by the facilitator; learning how to be a good listener and take turns; understanding how books and stories work.
There are a few places where you can enjoy storytime sessions in the Macedon Ranges, including at our local libraries, Gisborne, Kyneton, Romsey and Woodend; and via White Goose Book Exchange and Dromkeen.
Goldfields Libraries: Our local libraries have set storytimes for different age groups but are also available at any time for families to meet up and use the many facilities available (kitchen, wifi, outdoor area, tables and so on). We suggest checking out the Goldfields website to find the appropriate storytime session for your child (depending on their age) and following the Macedon Ranges Libraries Facebook page, to be up to date on any last minute changes. All these storytime sessions are free.
White Goose Book exchange: This Storytime has been paused for the moment. We will keep you up to date if it returns.
Dromkeen Saturday storytime: Enjoy an hour of storytime with activities from 2 pm on the first Saturday of each month. Follow the Dromkeen Facebook page to keep up to date with which book will be featured. This storytime is also free of charge.
