Summer Stars at Arklow Library!

Dear Parents,

See below information regarding the Summer Stars at Arklow Library.

Encouraging your child to take part in Summer Stars is a great way for them to continue their learning journey and have fun while they do it!

Research shows that children who read over the summer maintain or even increase their reading levels and return to school more prepared for the new school year.  

Reading booklets and bags: All participants in Arklow will be given a Summer Stars bag, reading booklet with puzzles and activities to record and track their own progress plus their own star to go in our window. They can stamp their card for their favourite book read each week plus there's a bookmark, sticker, pencil and seeded bookmark as prizes. There will be a certificate and medal at the end for all participants.

EBooks and AudioBooks Count Too!  BorrowBox ebook and audiobook collections are available through the app or online. These collections are free to all library members.

Events and Activities There are always activities and events taking place in Arklow Library. The Magic Table (which so many classes have visited during the year) is available for booking by families and friends. Check out our website or social media accounts for more details or ask us to be added to the Arklow Library weekly newsletter which keeps you updated on all the upcoming events.
