What a fun-filled holiday week at Ottery Public Library! 🎉📚
Let's look back at the week that was ....

We kept our young visitors busy with a wonderful mix of stories, games, creativity and lots of laughter! ❤️

📖 We enjoyed storytelling together.
🙌 We tested our listening skills with a lively game of Simon Says.
🕷️ We got creative and giggly with the Silly Spiders drawing game.
🌅🦒 We created beautiful African safari sunsets.
🦇 And things got a little batty when we made our very own bat crafts!
Thank you to all the children who joined us and brought so much energy, imagination and enthusiasm to every activity. We loved spending the holidays with you! 💛

Learning through play! 🧸🎨🧩

Ottery Public Library's Toy Library was filled with smiles and laughter when the little ones from Rooikappie Educare came to visit this morning! 💛

The children had a wonderful time exploring and playing with a variety of educational toys, building important skills while having loads of fun. The best kind of learning is sometimes the kind you don’t even realise is happening! 🌟

Through play, our little visitors were learning, discovering, sharing and using their imaginations, all while simply enjoying themselves.

Thank you, Rooikappie Educare, for spending such a fun-filled time with us. We can’t wait to welcome you back! 📚🧸❤️

📚 Celebrating Our Heritage, Celebrating Our Local Authors! 🇿🇦

This Heritage Day, Ottery Public Library celebrates more than our traditions, cultures and history. We also celebrate the stories that come from within our own communities. ❤️

Over the years, we have had the privilege of welcoming wonderful local community authors through our doors. Each visit has reminded us that our heritage lives not only in the stories passed down from generation to generation, but also in the new stories being written today. ✍️📖

To every local author who has visited Ottery Public Library, shared their journey, inspired our readers and encouraged aspiring writers: thank you for adding your voice to the story of our community.

Your words are part of our heritage. Your stories matter. And we are proud that our library can be a place where those stories are shared and celebrated. 🌍💛

Happy Heritage Day from all of us at Ottery Library! 🇿🇦
