Metheringham Library - Autumn 2009

After our campaign to get more children and parents to come to Jacki's story time sessions, the Teddy Bears' picnic was a triumph. 22 children accompanied by 22 teddy bears and 9 parents enjoyed hearing teddy bear stories, coloured pictures of bears and ate teddy bear shaped crisps. The regular story sessions are every Friday 2.15 to 2.45 but we also plan to have more themed events.

On 18 Sept 10.30 to 11.30am we have Lullaby Learners for mums and babies from 6 months to 24months old. Come and enjoy this free sensory lullaby session. Sing along and join in the activities and meet Twinkle The Star.

On Friday 6 November 1:30 pm - 2:30 pm why not come to the library to meet Bo Peep and Friends? This session is for families and carers with children aged five and under.
After the summer break, a new computer course will be starting in September covering the Internet and e-mail. Although this course is full we are taking names for the next course in January.

Whilst the reading group is still thriving, we can't take any more new members at the moment. If you are interested, please add your name to our waiting list or, if you have like minded friends, you could set up your own group. There are information packs available to guide you.

Just to remind you that you cannot telephone the library direct. When The Customer Service Centre first started and our old phone number was dialled, the call was transferred through to the centre. The old number has now been disconnected so you need to dial (01522) 782010.
