Beyond the Page Festival

Storytime with a musical twist

Join an ensemble of players and Animateur Chris Lam Sam from the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra for an interactive and fun 40-minute concert of music and storytelling for the whole whānau!

Enjoy musical performances of two beloved Kiwi classic picture books - The Little Yellow Digger by Betty Gilderdale and The Bomb by Sacha Cotter and Josh Morgan. There will be opportunities to ask questions and meet the musicians at the end of the performance.

These Beyond the Page events are recommended for pre-schoolers and primary school-aged tamariki, along with their caregivers.
