Summer reading challenge at Melbourn Hub library!

Over the summer, Melbourn Hub Library ran a summer art challenge – ‘my favourite story character’. The children were challenged to draw their favourite story character. A further challenge was to draw their character in nature such as the seaside, the woods, the garden or the riverside. They could use felt tips, colouring in pencils, wax crayons, paints or collage to bring colour to their pictures. The librarians were very impressed with the children’s art work and rewards were given to each child for taking part in the challenge. We would like to thank all the children for taking time […]

It was established from this very successful exercise that the community strongly wanted the local library saved from closure (due to loss of the original venue). Alongside the library an almost equally strong desire was expressed for a “Village […]
