We had a wonderful time at the library, hearing a story, reading books, doing puzzles and playing games.
We heard all about the summer stars programme and we can't wait to get involved.
Also, please check out this wonderful initiative if you have a child starting junior infants this September.
To help children to navigate starting school, libraries have put together a bag with books and resources just for them that can be collected at any library.
The ‘My Little Library Book Bag’ initiative is a collaboration between libraries, the Department of Rural and Community Development, and the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth as part of the First 5 Strategy.
As part of the initiative, a ‘My Little Library Book Bag’ is available free for every child starting school in 2025 to help them to prepare for this big step. Children and their parents or guardians can collect the bags at any library throughout the Country from 9th of May 2025.
