Summer Reading Challenge!

From tomorrow, Saturday 14th July, Torbay Libraries will be hosting the 2018 Summer Reading Challenge, where children aged 4-11 will be set the task of reading six books during the six-week school holiday.This year’s Challenge is set to get off to a mischievous start with the ‘Mischief Makers’. The theme is inspired by the historic Beano comics, which celebrate their 80th anniversary this year.

Children can sign up at any library in Torbay, and will receive incentives to encourage them along the way, plus a certificate and medal when they finish.

Tomorrow, Paignton and Brixham libraries are hosting launch events including craft activities, including making Dennis the Menace puppets and Mr Cosmo the magician.

There will be plenty of events happening at all Torbay Libraries throughout the holidays. Join in the fun and check out what’s on at your local library throughout the summer on the Torbay Libraries website or visit the Torbay Libraries Facebook page.
