Wangaratta Library brought the magic of Story Time to a whole new level this week, transforming the Wangaratta Performing Arts and Convention Centre into a vibrant hub of storytelling for Children's Book Week celebrations! Instead of the usual cozy library setting, eager young listeners were treated to a special performance on the centre's impressive stage on Tuesday.

Leading the enchanting event was Children and Youth Services Officer, Tanya Hopper, who captivated the audience with her animated reading and engaging interaction. The change of venue allowed for a larger audience, creating a truly festive atmosphere as children of all ages gathered to celebrate the joy of books.

Children's Book Week is a national celebration dedicated to promoting the love of reading and encouraging children to explore the wonderful world of literature. Wangaratta Library consistently strives to make this week a memorable one, and this year's move to the Performing Arts Centre was a resounding success. Parents and children alike commented on the excitement and special feel of the event.

“It was fantastic to see so many children enjoying Story Time in such a wonderful space,” said local parent, Sarah Miller. “The Performing Arts Centre really added to the atmosphere, and Tanya’s storytelling was brilliant as always.”

The event featured a selection of beloved children's stories, brought to life through Tanya’s expressive delivery and interactive elements. Children were encouraged to participate, acting out scenes and sharing their own interpretations of the tales. This interactive approach ensured that everyone felt involved and engaged.

Wangaratta Library’s commitment to fostering a love of reading in young people is evident in initiatives like Story Time and Children’s Book Week celebrations. Regular Story Time sessions are held at the library throughout the year, providing a free and accessible opportunity for families to connect and share the joy of reading. The library also offers a wide range of children’s books, programs, and activities to support literacy development.
