“For the first week of school holidays lots of kids attended our free movies, games and arts and
crafts sessions at all four libraries across the Whitsunday region,” Mayor Whitney said.

“It was great to see so many young people attend our free activities in Bowen, Cannonvale,
Collinsville and Proserpine.

“The fun continues in the second week of school holidays with many more free activities on offer
for kids of all ages at each library.

“This is a great opportunity to take advantage of some free educational fun right near home,” she said.
