Due to the growing membership we have decided to increase the opening hours. The toy library will now be open 30 minutes earlier at 9am each session.

So opening times are now Monday, Friday, Saturday 9am – 11.30.

The Busy Day on Sodor Set is from the Early Engineers line of Thomas Wooden Railways.

This toy has been purchased for the library and will be available for our members to enjoy as soon as it is processed. Another great addition to the toy library!

We now have an CD Audio book section underneath the DVD’s. There is a small charge to borrow audio books on CD ($2 for 1 $5 for 3) due to the high purchase cost. The tape audio books are still available and free to borrow for members. Have a look next time you’re in the library they’re great for rest times or car journeys.

Our last day of opening is Saturday the 19th December before the Christmas break, we re-open again on Friday 29th January.

We have a lovely half page article on the back cover of Friday 13th edition of the East & Bays Courier. Lucky for some!

We are having a child-free evening at the toy library on Monday 9th November. Members will be able to borrow toys including a whole load of new toys that will be available for the first time that night. Everyone who attends will get one free DVD rental and there will be wine, nibbles toys for sale plus a short-time to cover the official business of the AGM. We will be starting at 7.30 please contact us to RSVP if you are attending as we need to know numbers.
