Reading Rocks!

 Join the 2014 Kids' Winter Reading Challenge – 1 June to 31 August 2014

This year’s challenge is to spend as much time as you can reading. Grab an entry form from your nearest library at Timaru, Temuka or Geraldine, and start reading! Count your reading time in half-hour blocks and colour in the pictures to show how much time you have spent reading. Try the optional extras too.  Have fun and happy reading!

Jungle crafts

Lots of kids enjoyed the crafty fun in the holidays at our libraries at Timaru, Temuka and Geraldine.  There are cool craft books in the libraries if you'd like some great new ideas, or if you want to learn a new craft like knitting or kitemaking :-)

Children's Day and Peter Rabbit

Thanks to Penguin Books New Zealand, Peter Rabbit was our special guest at Children's Day.

He had a fantastic time and loved meeting all you cool kids! 

Peter also visited Timaru, Temuka and Geraldine Libraries for Storytime

and loved meeting you and hearing his stories read :-)
