Children’s Book Week 21st -27th August 2021
Children's Book Week is always such a
joy. Wonderful children, enthusiasm
about books, and amazing costumes.
So much fun to be had by children,
teachers and librarians!
After a week of school visits and lots of Bookish dress ups , Children Book Week 2021 in Denmark ended with fantastic school visits with author/illustrator Gabriel Evans. Gabriel did an amazing job inspiring the budding authors and illustrators from Denmark Primary School and Spirit of Play Community School. The children truly
enjoyed making a picture book character and a hilarious adventure for the character! The imagination of children is unlimited!!
We would like to sincerely thank our sponsors who each and every year support Children’s Book Week in Denmark, contributing to it's on-going success.

Regular Library Programs It has been a long, wet winter in Denmark and it certainly has been good
reading weather, but how nice is it to spring into reading in the sunshine! We are very excited to introduce a opportunity for our members to learn a new language. Using your library card you have free access to Transparent Language Online, with Kidspeak! Why not learn a language before we can visit the world again!! Check it out!! Let's Learn a Language or https://library.transparent.com/denmarkau/game/ng/#/login. We are grateful to the State Library of WA for their support, enabling us to access this resource.
Our winter Seasonal Spice Club, starring Nutmeg was such fun. Thanks to everyone who shared their recipes and came along to our morning tea, where we chatted over a cuppa and delicious nutmeg treats. We will soon have our own book of recipes! I wonder what tasty culinary creations will be inspired by our Spring spice, Star Anise? Our new Pattern Library has inspired people to get out their sewing machines and sew something new, whether it be clothes, bags, or even homemade cloth nappies. What a wonderful way to recycle, and up-cycle and create something uniquely you. The next season of seeds will be available in our Seed Library. We have had so many seeds donated to us for which we are grateful. Many thanks to our volunteers Acaysha and Kit for helping us package the seeds and to Karlee and the students Great Southern TAFE for their support. The Toy Library is now open for families wishing to get toys, puzzles and games for their families. We have used the time of closure to sort, clean and tidy the Toy Library items. Many thanks to Catherine for all the time spent with the Toy Library.
