School holidays in the Library

The library staff have organised some events to keep local school children occupied during the holidays.  

First up is Christmas Baubles - Christmas is just around the corner and what better way to prepare than making your own Christmas baubles to decorate the Christmas tree.  You will have an opportunity to use different techniques to create a wide range of effects for your personalised baubles.  You’ll need to book for these sessions which will be held on Monday, 27th September between 2:30 – 4:30 pm and Tuesday, 5th October between 10:00am and 12:00 noon. This one is for those aged over 6 and there is a small charge of $3 per child per session to cover costs.  Call Candy at the Central Library Eastgardens on 9366 3888 to make your booking.
