Summer Stars is an exciting reading-based programme which is available free of charge to all children across the country. Children are invited to register for the adventure at any library and enjoy reading many books as part of the adventure during this time. All participants will be given a Summer Stars Reading Card to record and track their own progress.
The Summer Stars programme provides the whole family with an opportunity to explore the full range of events and facilities which are available in their local library, such as story time sessions, children’s activities, access to talking books and games, computers and internet access, and of course children’s books for all ages.
Exciting events and activities for children will also be held across Waterford Libraries during the summer.
