Burnside Library School Holiday Program - October 2023

We told you not to blink or else the October School Holidays would be here, and now look, here they are!

Luckily for you and the kids, the Burnside Library has a whole range of activities to keep you busy over the holiday period.

Kicking off the collection on Tuesday 3 October is the most popular event in every collection, the Grandma Era: Learn to Knit session. Learn to knit with the help of our resident knitting group, with all materials supplied this event books out fast.

Burnside Library will also be playing host to Ruth Tuck Art School for a watercolour masterclass session with a Spring theme on Wednesday, 4 October for ages 5+.

On Tuesday, 10 October a facilitated Creative and Critical Thinking workshop will be held based on the theories of Dr John Langrehr’s Thinking Program. For ages 5 and up, this session will encourage curiosity and question asking.

And for those looking for a more nature-based experience, the last day of the collection (Friday 13 October) will be a Recycled Bottle Planters session – mixing arts and crafts with plant care and sapling planting.

Other sessions include Birdboxes with Bunnings, Pot Plants with Bunnings, Puppetry Workshop and more.

During this period Burnside Library will continue to deliver regular library services and activities including Young Adults Book Club, Baby Chat, Preschool Storytime and more.
