The kids may be back at School but the Summer reading challenge is still running! We have loved hearing about the children's favourite books, goals they have set and achieved themselves and there has been lots and lots of happy faces. 😃

There is still a couple of weeks to sign up so if you haven't already, pop in and speak to a member of staff or volunteer.

🪘Children set their own reading goals and read anything they like from the library. They collect reward stickers as they achieve their reading goals. At the end of the summer, children who complete all their goals earn a certificate and a medal. For under 5s there is a mini challenge, so they don't miss out. 🎸

🎹This year's theme is Read to the Beat, giving everyone the opportunity to discover diverse musical genres and cultural influences through specially curated reading lists and engaging activities that celebrate the connection between storytelling and sound.🪗

Our Community Read for September is 'You Are Here' by David Nicholls 📚

'Marnie is stuck. Stuck working alone in her London flat, stuck battling the long afternoons and a life that increasingly feels like it's passing her by. Michael is coming undone. Reeling from his wife's departure, increasingly reclusive, taking himself on long, solitary walks across the moors and fells. When a persistent mutual friend and some very English weather conspire to bring them together, Marnie and Michael suddenly find themselves alone on the most epic of walks and on the precipice of a new friendship. But can it survive the journey?'

Pick up a copy and take part!

Someone you know starting School in September?

Norfolk libraries offer "Getting Ready for School" bags packed with specially selected children's books and useful information to help young children transition into reception class. The purple bags are free to borrow for three weeks!

Also, we've been fortunate enough that a representative from The South Norfolk family hub has been dropping into our library most Monday afternoons.

At their Hub, they offer free play sessions, parenting advice, and transition support for children heading into reception. Next session is tomorrow, Thursday 27th August.
