The Six Week Brick Challenge

The Kawerau District Library is running a six week brick challenge starting Monday 25th March. Each week for six weeks, we'll release a theme for children and adults to create brick creations at home or in the Library. Keep an eye on our Facebook Kawerau Library and Museum page for all the details and we''ll celebrate with a grand finale Saturday 4th May.

Lego Club

Lego Club is a great way to develop your building, spatial and communication skills. Every second Monday of the month, 3.30-4.30 pm, we will run sessions using our Lego to discuss and build with Lego around different themes. This is aimed at 5-12 year olds and parents are encouraged to participate too. Our next session for the year is Monday 13 May, 3.30-4.30 pm.
