With a variety of fun and educational activities, the libraries offer a great option for families with school-aged children and younger.

From storytelling sessions and craft workshops to interactive games and family movie afternoons, there’s something for every child to enjoy.

The program includes special Alice in Wonderland-inspired activities as part of the Wonderland on the Murray Sand Sculpture Trail.

Bookings for most activities are essential, as places are limited, and can be made online, in person or by phone. If you need to cancel your booking, please contact the library.

Children must be accompanied by an adult or carer during all activities, and younger siblings are welcome to do colouring-in while older siblings take part in organised sessions.
