Detectives at Shanty Town Visit!

Hi Everyone,

Just reminder that our next Shanty Town visit is on

18^th of August 2017.

 

We are going to hold a bit of a competition for the best dressed detective. Prize, $1 packet of old fashioned lollies (our budget is tight sorry J )

So if your kids wish to come dressed up as Sherlock Holmes, Nancy Drew etc, it would put a fabulous spin to the day!

 

As per usual we are supplying our own on morning tea, lunch and drinks. 

Cost is $3.00 per school age children.  Teachers and pre-schoolers are free.

 

Please be at the front gate by

10am

 

I have attached a letter from Shanty Town which pretty much outlines the same things I have said.  Please do read it.

If you have children that need a ride because you can't be there, please contact me.

027 671 6759

Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Helen

Fwd: NZ Book Awards

Good morning. There are still some spaces left for our NZ Book Awards celebrations. We would love to have some of your students come along and get involved with some fun activities at the library.

Hope to hear from you soon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The annual New Zealand Book Awards for Children and Young Adults is being celebrated in the library during the week of the

The Westland District Library invites your class to the library to help us celebrate one of the finalists. The book we have chosen to focus on this year is

Fuzzy Doodle by Melinda Szymanik. Melinda Szymanik's book is a finalist in the picture book and illustration category. 

 

There will be an opportunity for your junior students to listen to Fuzzy Doodle being read, take part in a scavenger hunt, and get creative making their own colourful butterflies.

We will display each masterpiece in the library.

 

Below are the dates and times for class visits. Sessions will run for one hour.

 

Tuesday 15^th 11am
