Child Protection week- 29th May

Child Protection Week reminds us that ending violence against children starts at home, in our words, our actions, and our presence.

By working together and choosing intentional parenting, we can raise a generation that feels safe, seen, and deeply loved. And where children are being abused and enduring violence at the hands of parents or family, may we as the village step in with courage — to protect, to advocate, and to remind every child that they are worthy of safety and love.

This Child Protection Week, may we work together to create safe spaces where every child can thrive.

While the Adriaanse Library hall was being accommodated, we saw it as a great opportunity to create awareness about libraries and the many services we offer to the public.

We were granted the opportunity, and we proudly executed it with passion and purpose. Sharing knowledge, promoting reading, and connecting with our community will always remain at the heart of what we do

On Wednesday, we carried on with our trend

Here we had our very own YearBeyond colleagues, Lorenzo and Eulanda, reading to children with great passion and enthusiasm. Their love for reading created a fun and engaging atmosphere for the children, encouraging imagination and a love for books from a young age.

Moments like these remind us of the importance of reading and community involvement in shaping young minds.

Good day Adriaanse Library family,
We hope you are well!!!

On Tuesday, we continued with our Antenatal Support Group, and as always, it was a great success. We had Chantal Naidoo speaking to the ladies about the importance of nutrition during pregnancy and overall healthy living.

We also welcomed a few new Libby members to our library family.

Through this great partnership between the clinics and libraries, the program has been a wonderful success thus far. We have now completed Week 3 out of 8 and are still going strong. We look forward to the exciting weeks ahead.

Says Eulanda, a YearBeyond intern at Adriaanse Library
If you thought reading was only for certain people, here she is enjoying something from home, something from the Cape Flat something many of us can relate to for our daily dose of reading.

The book is titled Living Coloured by Yusuf Daniels.
We do have the hard copy available, but you can also read it on our Libby App here:
