South Island Children's Librarians' Conference 2009

It's the beginning of a new year of exciting conference possibilities!

Why not start the year off with something a bit exotic and go to the South Island Children's Librarians' Conference hosted in Greymouth in March?

The programme includes:
- Natural Magic - using puppets to enhance literature and the library experience

- Tessa Rose - Storytelling through music
- Lynne Jackett - “Treasures of the past become the pearls of the future”
- Stu Duval, storytelling workshop
- Julie Hesketh - Rodney District Libraries Roadshow – emphasis on Years 4,5,6,7,8

Sounds like fun!
