Myli - My Community Library the place to be

-

Warragul Library certainly was the place to be during the winter school holidays.

The Myli – My Community Library team at Warragul hosted a wide range of fun events to keep the whole family entertaine­d!

Kids Dance with Industry Studios

The Myli team partnered with Industry Studios for two Introducti­on to Hip Hop dance sessions.

Teacher Natasha taught the participan­ts simple dance moves and showed everyone how dance can build confidence and bring joy while keeping fit and having fun!

One patron said, ‘It was so awesome to have kids making noise and bopping around the library!’ and another patron said, ‘This was a great event!

Natasha was so supportive and encouragin­g and was more than happy to give extra time and attention.’

Macramé Plant Hanger workshop

There were loads of amazing plant hangers made by the clever kids who attended the hanger workshop. Guided by Myli team member Kellie, participan­ts learnt simple macramé techniques and decorated their own recycled pot with a cute little succulent included.

Winter Wonderland Craft-Fes

The children spent the afternoon creating their own Winter Wonderland with Myli team member Jenny!

It was lovely to be inside the warm library, handmaking snowflakes from paper, glitter and glue.

Damo Music For Kids

Melbourne singer, songwriter and children’s entertaine­r Damo was a huge hit during a special StoryTime session. Children and their grown-ups moved and grooved along with Damo and his guitar and enjoyed stories.

During the holidays, Damo toured Warragul, Inverloch, Korumburra and Wonthaggi and performed for around 200 children and their families.
