Summer Reading Club Returns to Moree Community Library

With summer holidays almost upon us, the Moree Community Library is primed to help take pressure off parents with a raft of activities to keep young ones entertained.

The national Summer Reading Club has returned to Moree Community Library. The 2018 theme, Curious Creatures, encourages eager young readers to discover new worlds as they explore and connect with a curiosity of creatures through a range of interactive activities available in libraries and online.

Summer Reading Club activity packs for preschool, primary, and secondary school aged children are currently available to collect at Moree Community Library. Each pack contains an activity booklet, reading log, and an invitation to the Summer Reading Club Curious Creatures dress-up party

The Summer Reading Club party will be held on Wednesday 30th January at 3:00pm. Prizes will be awarded for the best dressed Curious Creature and for the most reading logs completed in the summer holidays. RSVP by Monday 21st January, notifying staff of any food allergies.

Moree Community Library will also have several programs running throughout the month of January for children of all ages, which will touch on the Curious Creatures theme:

• Tinker Table is back on Mondays and Wednesdays at 10:30am from January 7th to 30th, suitable for children aged 4+.

• The Library will also be screening movies on Fridays, fortnightly: January 4th (Small Foot - PG), 18th (Slender Man –M), and February 1st (Incredibles 2 – PG).
