Libraries across Whittlesea hosted a range of school holiday activities, with a jam-packed calendar to cover the two week break. From reading with dogs to boomerang throwing, students were spoilt with choice to fill their break with fun.
Star Weekly photographer Damjan Janevski visited the Mill Park Library on Tuesday, April 18 to capture all the fun at the Roald Dahl diorama school holiday activity.
Kate Ferguson is the Yarra Plenty Regional Library senior manager for engagement and operations, she said that for some families the school holiday break can feel stretched out.
“It’s really important for people to know that they can visit the library during the school holidays and there will always be something fun to do,” she said.
“We received some really good numbers with around 40-60 people attending a lot of our sessions.
“We even had a request to run adult programs during as part of the school holiday program for parents to enjoy while the kids are doing activities.
“This is something we might explore in the future as we want to co-design with the community as much as possible.”
