Be educated and entertained

A range of different activities will be hosted by the Edward River Library.

School holiday fun is catered for at the Edward River Library for the next two weeks.

With a vibrant mix of creative, tech-savvy and hands-on activities, there is something for every child to enjoy.

From Maker Space days and virtual reality adventures to crafty afternoons with velvet art, loom bands, and crochet, the program is designed to keep young minds active and inspired throughout the break.

A new highlight these holidays is the ‘Book Chat’ sessions, where kids can share their favourite reads and learn about other interesting books.
