READING Libraries are getting into the jubilee spirit by offering a range of special events for all ages.
On Saturday, Battle Library on Reading’s Oxford Road held a special craft session allowing children to come in and decorate some jubilee bunting which is now on display.
They could also admire special displays celebrating the Queen’s 70th anniversary on the throne.
Terry Curran, Battle Library Branch Manager, said: “Across all our Reading Library Branches we are delighted to join in the Jubilee fun and offer free craft sessions for families.
“We had a really great day on Saturday at Battle Library making Jubilee bunting and we have a whole host of other craft sessions to look forward to this week and in the build up to the Jubilee weekend.”
On Tuesday next week, the library will hold an all-day platinum jubilee celebration complete with treasure hunt, while Tilehurst Library will hold a free craft session from 10am-11am, as will Palmer Park Library from 2.30pm-3.30pm.
Southcote Library holds a crown-making session from 2pm-4pm.
Whitley Library will hold a platinum planting session from 10am to noon, and Caversham Library will give children aged four to 10 the opportunity to make a fairy place or a castle of doom from 2pm-4.30pm.
