"These school holidays we've created a diverse program that caters for active kids, creative kids and inquisitive kids, so it should be educational and lots of fun."

On Tuesday, October 1, Emma Livisiannis will be running the popular children's yoga program.
On Wednesday, the library will explore the steampunk trend with a craft workshop, where attendees will be able to make their own steampunk style accessories and costumes.
Library staff member Rhiannon Mijovic says that the craft workshops are a great way for children to be active and creative.
"These workshops are great for all school aged kids, they really get the kids to be creative and even learn something when they're away from school," she said
The fun continues in Week 2 of the school holidays. On Tuesday, October 8, Action Reaction entertainment will be holding a superhero training and acrobatic stunt show.
