School holiday fun

Whittlesea’s libraries are the place to be these school holidays for families looking for free entertainment.

Taj, 8, (pictured with dad Leigh) were among the kids taking part in a STEM workshop at Whittlesea library last Wednesday.

During the session, participants learnt how to build solar panel-powered cars and took part in a rocket experiment.

The fun continues at Yarra Plenty Regional Libraries five Whittlesea branches until the end of the school holidays.

Whittlesea library will host a Taekwondo and self-defence session for kids on Wednesday, January 22, from 10.30-11.30am, while Lisa Foley, co-author of the 18,000 Holes in the Universe series, will be hosting a workshop for budding authors at Thomastown library from 11am-noon on the same day.

Also on January 22, the NGV Kids on Tour program will make a stop at Mill Park library, giving kids a chance to show off their creative skills from 2-4pm.

On Thursday, January 23, kids can learn how to make solar-powered robots, helicopters, planes, windmills, air boats and three-wheeler bikes at Thomastown library from 2-3pm.
