WRITE WITH
DEBORAH ABELA
Deborah Abela's lively, imaginative and fun-filled writing workshops will help your children learn easy ways to bring their stories to life. Award-winning author of more than 25 books, it's easy to see why Deb is one of the most popular authors in Australian children's literature. Suitable for children in school years K-2 & 3-6.
The Summer Reading Adventure has started! Children can join for free to complete fun activities and challenges over the holidays. Finish all the challenges to collect special rewards.
Teens can join facilitators from Information + Cultural Exchange's New Age Noise Collective to learn how to produce music using Ableton Live software. No past experience required, just an interest in making beats! Suitable for school years 7-12.
Does your child have trouble finding the just-right story for them? Book Buddies takes the guess work out and allows your child to sit back and listen as the first chapter of a specially selected book is read aloud. As a group we'll workshop predictions for the story ahead and then children will borrow a copy of the book to take home and continue reading! Writing journals will be supplied. Suitable for children in school years 3-4 & 5-6.
Is your child starting school next year? Let the library help you celebrate such an important milestone with stories about starting school for the first time and a take home craft.
Help your child discover a new interest, a lurking talent or a hidden flair they never knew they had. Carefully curated by our librarians, these packs contain seven engaging stories and three fun, fact-filled books PLUS a selection of creative activity sheets to complete together.
Available to collect from Tuesday 5 - Sunday 10 January 2021
