Absolutely love the staff here! I take my boys to storytime every week and they love it. There are other activities for kids and so many books to look through. Computers. It’s the best library I’ve been to in QLD so far. Travelling Australia from Toowoomba!

Story Time: 1. A fun, supportive space for children to engage with stories through the storyteller, songs and other playful learning activities provided, to stretch the stories beyond the pages of a book 2. An opportunity for parents/carers to see ways in which they can take home such reading/story telling skills to explore with their children every other day 3. Exposes children from a young age to the excitement of books and the world around them that can relate back into the stories 4. Children learn how to behave in a library (quiet spaces) as well as borrow, care for, enjoy and return books 5. A chance for children to learn, as well as practice, self-organisation skills such as to sit, listen, follow instructions, take turns, interact with peers and an adult other than their parent/carer My children really look forward to Story Time and have grown so much over the couple of years we have attended. I now see them thriving in an environment that they feel confident to express their thoughts, ideas and stories amongst a group. A big THANK YOU for this beautiful occasion of enjoyment for all! Kind regards, Tammy
