The last week of the Circus Stars Summer Reading Challenge is finally here and it’s a good one.
In the recently refurbished children’s section of Queen’s Park Library, we have been flooded by children and swamped with events in the last five weeks!
From jungle adventures with Nellie the elephant and parades around the library to making the fantastic puppets pictured here, the under 6s have been polishing their circus moves and getting into character.
The older children have also had loads of fun learning tricks such as juggling, t-shirt painting skills and attending workshops for up & coming clowns.
To finish it all off we will be completing a giant circus collage this afternoon and hosting two “end of summer reading” parties this week. The mystic 8 ball in our ‘Read your fortune’ tent predicts that everyone will enjoy themselves and more children will complete the challenge over the next few weeks…
So if you’ve been taking part in Circus Stars at your library, check out the last flurry of events and make sure you come along soon to tell us about what you’ve been reading in order to get your medal!
