Picton Library School Holiday Activities at Picton Library By Lynnaire Woods The school holidays have arrived as autumn creeps up. As usual the library is offering daily activities for the children to enjoy. Drop-in crafts with an autumn theme are our focus these holidays. It’s a great way for children to develop their skills with all the crafty bits they need on hand to turn out something creative. There’ll be a movie afternoon to relax with and the Library Lego Challenge for children to sign up to. In the second week we are very pleased to have Levity Beet back to entertain us with a lively and fun musical performance. This is a free show for all ages. Holidays are also a good time to encourage reading…..staying in bed with a book in the mornings, taking away on holiday, relaxation down time or making something creative and learning new things. Come and browse the collection and be inspired for the holidays or let us guide you and your children toward some new reading. Please remember that when it rains it is a little slippy on the tiles at upper High Street – particularly near the Library. This is something we are aware of and are trying to get fixed – but in the meantime please take care. The next Grownups movie is on Tuesday April 27 2.00pm– give the library a call for more information See you in the library.
