The Ironman 70.3 event takes place this Sunday in Dorchester and
Weymouth. As some roads will close there will be delays, please check
your route before travelling. Weymouth Recycling Centre will not
be open and access to Dorchester Recycling Centre will be disrupted.
This year’s Summer Reading Challenge is all about creativity. From dance to drawing, junk modelling to music, there’s something for everyone. Children will be able to find new reads linked to their favourite creative arts, and access free activities at the library. We can’t wait to get creative!
The Summer Reading Challenge is developed by The Reading Agency and delivered in partnership with public libraries. This year’s theme has been developed in partnership with Create, a leading charity bringing the creative arts to those who need it most. The bespoke illustrations for Marvellous Makers are created by the brilliant illustrator, Natelle Quek.
As you read library books on the Summer Reading Challenge, you will receive a host of stickers, some with smells. When you have read 6 books you’ll be awarded an amazing Marvellous Makers medal and your certificate will be sent to your school.
The Summer Reading Challenge runs from 6 July to 14 September 2024.
