Eco Warriors and Nature Detectives Youngsters have
been learning how to save the planet at two special holiday events at
Hethersett Library. Two morning
sessions have shown them how to care for the environment through a
series of quizzes, games and activities. The first morning
was for Nature Detectives – children up to the age of seven. A total
of 34 youngsters with their parents and carers heard about re-cycling
and enjoyed puzzles, word searches, mask making and learning how to find
animal tracks. The second session
catered for Eco Warriors – youngsters aged eight to 12 -and a further
25 children with their parents and carers took part. They used library
resources to learn about subjects as diverse as re-cycling and
composting. The events were all part of Norfolk Library Service’s Big
Wild Read summer for children. The next special
event at Hethersett Library will take a nostalgic look at the world of
food and drink. Members of the public will be encouraged to reminisce on
Saturday 8th September from 2.30 to 4 p.m about the tastes of
the past. Books with a culinary theme will be on display in a trip
through food and drink through the ages. There will also be free
refreshments. The entrance to the
library has been turned into a colourful display of winning posters from
the recent competition organised by the Hethersett and Meltons Road
Safety Committee which attracted entries from five local Hethersett and
Little Melton schools.
