Great news! Summer Stars our annual summer reading programme is back for 2023!
Summer Stars is the free national reading programme for children that takes place in all public libraries each summer.
Waterford Libraries will run the Summer Stars Reading Adventure in all library branches during the summer from the 12th of June to the 1st September 2023.
Summer Stars is an exciting reading-based programme, available free of charge to Primary School children, to encourage them to continue reading throughout the summer months.
Each child is invited to register for the adventure at their library and enjoy reading many books during the summer holidays. All participants will be given a Summer Stars Reading Card to record and track their own progress. At the end of the adventure, children should return the reading card to their Library.
During September, Waterford Library staff will visit Schools to present the children with a Summer Stars medal and certificate of achievement.
A range of events for children will also be held in Waterford Libraries during the summer.
Please contact your local Library Branch for more information.
