Big Play - Stay and Play session
📅 Thursday 5th November
⏰ 1pm-2pm
🎫 FREE
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Best suited for pre-school age (and their adults)
📍Caister Library

A space full of possibilities. What if families could dream up their own playground—together?
This session is a chance for grown-ups and their children to co-create playful worlds using giant objects, material, colour, texture, light, and shadow. Imagine as you turn everyday materials into something magical. Whether you’re 2 or 72, this is a space to explore side by side—no instructions, no right or wrong, just shared discovery and joyful mess-making.

Caister Library Tuesday 3rd November 2pm-4pm

👨‍🚒 We're all about keeping people safe every day of the year - but with winter coming, there are some extra checks we'd love to carry out.

😊 That's why we've teamed up with our colleagues at Norfolk County Council Trading Standards to hold another series of winter safety events in libraries across the county next month.

✅ Bring your electric blankets, heat pads, heated throws and portable heaters to be tested by a professional for free.

🏠 And speak to our friendly teams about home fire safety, product safety and how you and your loved ones can stay warm without risk this winter.
