Winton Library

Happy Bank Holiday Monday! 🌼This is the last week of May, and it's also Half Term, so we'll have plenty of craft activities out all week to keep kids entertained and off their screens. And if they haven't already, they can get stuck into our Library Legends challenge and start winning stickers 🌟🤩🌟
For the young-at-heart, Ross will once again be hosting our monthly Local History Group: get together to share memories and learn more about Dorset (or indeed, Hampshire 🧐) in days gone by. If you know anyone with an interest in the local area, why not share this post with them? We'd appreciate it!
On Saturday 30th, all ages can enjoy another of our popular Pebble Painting sessions with the Winton Library Garden Volunteers. 🎨 If the weather is fine, we hope this will take place outside in the sunny garden. 🌞
However you spend your week, we hope you'll have time to sit down for five minutes with a good book. And if you don't have a book to hand? You know where to find us 😉

All this week at Winton Library, we are celebrating Elmer the Patchwork Elephant! 🟨🟪🐘🟥🟩 Millions of children around the world have read and loved Dave McKee's stories about this colourful fellow, who spreads a message of inclusivity and friendship. We will have drop-in crafts available throughout the week! Our card making workshop on Thursday is currently fully booked, but there will be plenty of other fun activities to try. ✂️
All our usual weekly activities will be running as usual, including Junior Chess Club on Saturday; and our Garden Volunteers will also be here, if weather permits.
Hope to see you soon!
