It is hard to believe that it really is that time of the year for Christmas storytimes and holiday activities. We have had a very busy few weeks leading up to out short break. All our library branches will be closed from today until Monday January 5 2009. After hours return chutes are available at all branches during this time. When we return we are launching right into a great range of Summer Read activities for children and adults. Most activities are free but do require booking in. Highlights over the summer holidays include hosting our Summer Read author Stephen Conte on January 15 at Radcliffes. We are also conducting art workshops with local artists so children from our Shire can send their artwork over to our sister city Shiroi. We currently have a range of artwork from Shiroi being displayed in our libraries. We also have special guest Darryl Bellingham all the way from Queensland to take us on digital storytelling journeys. There is also scrapbooking, games, twilight storytimes and lots of prizes to be won. This is a great time of the year so come along and join in. All details about the Summer Reading Club are on our website. We have a number of storytimes over the last few weeks so we have included a few photos. Look forward to posting some more blogs for you in 2009.
Regards, the Campaspe Regional Library team
