Kirri | Library Assistant
I have a background in teaching and a passion for learning and helping others. I enjoy creating welcoming environments where people feel supported and encouraged to explore new ideas. I value curiosity, lifelong learning, and meaningful connections.

Outside of work, I’m happily married and spend much of my free time keeping up with my mischievous Dachshund, Tank, who ensures life is never boring, working in my veggie patch to grow nutritious and delicious food and spending time with my eight nephews. I believe in finding a balance between professional growth and the simple joys of everyday life.

What I read | My reading tastes are wonderfully varied. I love non-fiction books on wellbeing and gardening, but when it’s time to escape into fiction, I’m drawn to fantasy and adventure. Whether it’s the magic of Harry Potter or the epic world of The Lord of the Rings, I always enjoy a story that sparks the imagination.

Romeow the Library Metacat loves stories, the thing is his little paws aren’t very good at holding onto the books he wants to read. Can you help read to Romeow so he can listen to some fantastical fables or learn something new?

Romeow, the Library Metacat will be available for loaning out within the Library’s children area, where participants are encouraged to grab some books they love, get comfy with Romeow and read away to the heart’s content.
