There is a variety of craft activities on offer at libraries in Strathbogie Shire throughout the holidays. The whole family can enjoy crafting some spectacular sea creatures. Pick up an activity program at your local Goulburn Valley Library or go to www.gvlibraries.com.au/holidays to take a look.
You can also grab the very popular #TakeHome craft packs which have returned to encourage a bit of creativity these school holidays. Inside every pack are four different 'Under the Sea' themed crafts to take and make. Each pack includes templates and instructions. These activities are great for all ages and can easily be made by younger children with a little bit of grown-up help. If you have crayons, pencils, or textas, as well as glue and some scissors, you have all you need to complete all 4 crafts.
You can pick up your craft packs at all of branch libraries and the Mobile Library during opening hours from Friday 8 April until Saturday 23 April. Templates will also be available to download and print on our website www.gvlibraries.com.au/holidays.
