We’re joining the Book-to-Song trend!

If these books were songs, here’s what we think:

❤️ The Library of Borrowed Hearts = A Thousand Years
🖤 A Twisted Love Story = Bad Romance
🔑 The Tenant = Somebody's Watching Me

Which song would you pair with your favourite book?

Let us know in the comments and see if your match makes our next Book-to-Song post!

A heartfelt thank you to Gerald Wingate from the Cape Bird Club for his insightful and engaging talk.🙌

It was wonderful to learn about the diverse bird species found in our area and the important role they play in our ecosystem.

Gerald also shared valuable information on how we can help conserve nature and protect our environment for future generations.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this informative and inspiring event.
