It is not too late to join the Summer Reading Challenge at Stalham Library. Pop in today to get your free pack.

9000 SIGN UPS TO THE SUMMER READING CHALLENGE!

We've broken 9000 sign ups, and we're extremely happy about that. Why? Well, it's 9000 Norfolk children reading books and getting stickers. 9000 Norfolk children having fun reading books they love. 9000 Norfolk children challenging themselves with epic reading goals. 9000. It's a big number; just imagine a crowd of 9000 people. Except they're children all reading brilliant books. A wholesome thought!

There is still time (just!) to get involved if you haven't - there's a mini challenge for children aged 0-4 an a main challenge for 4-11. You can sign up in any Norfolk Library, and it finishes Saturday 12 September.

If you HAVE finished...why not collect your medal and certificate at one of our ceremonies! Check with your local branch when they are hosting theirs.

The Summer Reading Challenge is delivered by The Reading Agency in partnership with libraries and powered by Universal Music Group.

We had a lot of fun last week when we made banjos out of boxes. Sheenagh and Ruth helped over 20 children design and create their banjos.
Whilst she was there for the craft, Willow also collected her Summer Reading Challenge certificate and medal for reading six books. Well done Willow!
