Half Term Activities
During the October half term Beccles Library ran a variety of
activities and events for children
To help celebrate Black History Month children came to Beccles
Library to make African masks.
Artist Mike McManus worked with a group of older children to help
them in creating their own CD of animation. This was a great
success.
Kate Jackson brought her mini monsters along to a family playtime
session for the under threes who were kept completely captivated
and had no fear in touching all the animals, unlike some of the
adults!
