Mirri the West Highland Terrier couldn't resist calling into Storytime last week to visit her doting "mum" Orange City Librarian Liz Barry and to listen to a story featuring an adventurous puppy (not unlike herself). West Highland Terriers were originally bred to look for foxes in the Scottish Highlands but we suspect Mirri will enjoy a more lavish lifestyle in Orange.
Yesterday I joined in on Storytime at 11am and sang the welcome song, enjoyed three great "bear" stories - especially the one about the bear sitting on the picnic hamper!!! And the "snoring" one too. There was more singing with Heather and then to craft where everyone did their best colouring-in and cutting out of a cute little bear which Heather added a small clip to his head to help him nod from side to side. I'm going back today to make my own bear for the office.
Hi all you readers and writers out there. Orange City Library is planning a scrabble competition for kids in the school holidays- if anyone is a scrabble lover, has ever run a competition , has any good ideas, suggestions , thoughts.... I would love to hear from you.
Cheers & thanks Heather hhanly@orange.nsw.gov.au
