DEAR-poster_thumbYou are invited to Drop Everything And Read with your child at the library on Saturday May 19th from11.30am

We want every child to have the wonderful and very important experience of sharing books and stories with the adults in their life right from the time they are born. Bingara Library supports parents in reading to children so that they build the early literacy skills they need to become good readers and succeed at school. Come along to this very special morning and share a book with your child. Mums are encouraged to meet for a chat and a coffee at a coffee shoppe. Reading with your child will be followed by a sausage sizzle. Please RSVP by 16th May for catering purposes.
