This event invites a Drag Queen, Lucie, to read stories to students and their families. These stories would encompass a wide range of themes and topics, selected to promote diversity, empathy, and understanding among students. This year the event is open to all Junior School students and parents and would provide a safe and welcoming space for them to explore different perspectives and experiences.
In recent times, Drag Story Time events have faced safety concerns and many parents have stopped taking their children to public events out of an abundance of caution. In hosting this event for the UNIS community, we are providing a safe opportunity for our families to attend an event they otherwise may not feel safe attending if hosted by another agency, specifically because of their identity or association with the LGBTQ+ community.
