THE LIBRARY OF UNWRITTEN FUTURES – A Two-Day Holiday Adventure!
Please note, this holiday program is for students in Years 3–6
A sign on the door says: Library. Open 7pm-7am. All Are Welcome.
This might seem like a normal library at first glance. Old books on any topic you can imagine. Ancient paper and ink whisper at the edge of your senses, they seem to call you deeper and deeper into the shelves. You could walk around this library for hours and never learn all its secrets. At the wall furthest from the entrance is a door labelled “Futures” that no one seems to notice with a handle so dusty it’s hard to get a good grip. Who knows when it was last opened? Inside are more books, but they are all empty. Waiting to be written.
Over two days, young storytellers will explore the mysteries of this hidden library, imagine unwritten futures, and bring their discoveries to life through writing, drawing, and creative play.
What to Expect:
📚 Wander through the mysterious library, uncovering hidden corners and secrets.
✏️ Write and illustrate your own stories in the Room of Futures.
🔮 Dream up new worlds and possibilities, full of mystery and imagination.
🎨 Create visual maps, artworks, and story elements to bring your ideas to life.
✨ Share your creations and contribute to a library of unwritten futures.
