Campaspe Shire libraries are planning to keep kids busy and entertained these school holidays with a range of free activities on offer, throughout a two-week period over Easter.
During the first week, children will be able to partake in craft activities and movie afternoons plus so much more.

In the second week, kids continue craft, making terracotta jugs, wind socks and gumnut mobiles.
Council development general manager Paul McKenzie said it would be good to see a variety of activities and programs return to all five libraries, given the past two years of restrictions with the COVID-19 pandemic.
"The highlight of the library school holiday program is South African storyteller and musician, Valanga Khoza," he said.
"Families can enjoy some lively singing and drumming as Valanga weaves traditional South African instruments into his storytelling."
