Library - children and adultsSchool Holiday Programs

An interactive program to encourage children to explore, create and become inspired. This is offered to families across the three library sites during the School Holidays. The program is available four weeks prior to end of term.

The programs are popular so parents are encouraged to book early to avoid disappointment. Most programs are provided free of charge, but if there are any costs involved (usually to cover materials) these are kept to a minimum.
