There are two sessions each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, from 10.30am to 11am for children up to seven years - this includes stories and a handicraft. It's free so just come along and enjoy yourself.

In the afternoon we cater for children from eight to twelve years with Crafty Creations - a light hearted look at what children can make - between 3.30pm and 4.30pm. The theme for the activities is Spring, and crafts could include origami, making tulips, butterflies and bees out of paper, and other handicrafts. Bookings are essential for the afternoon programs, and there's a small three dollar charge per child.

Just ring the library on 6740 2190 to secure a place for your child.
