Delightful December!

 Why is December so delightful? Well, for the library it's because of so much planning in the works for the new year!

What's coming soon, you might ask? (Or even if you didn't ask, you're about to find out!)

1. Tea and Topics for our parents regarding reading for pleasure and online resources from the library.

2. Another Late Night at the Library! And, yes, this will be another mystery but in a different format and with new suspects...be on the lookout for The Case of the Mysterious Messages!

3. Author visits! We have one for senior school in February planned, and the scheduling of the classes and times is underway. We have a Thai author (and the book character!) being planned for our youngest classes through their Thai class times, and then fingers crossed on another author able to come visit us from the US.

4. On top of this, we are hosting Kids' Lit Quiz Thailand this year, with 34 teams already signed up, and more possible in the next few weeks. This is a really big event since the winner goes on to Canberra Australia for the world finals!

(and no, that's not all, although all of that is happening within the first two months of the new term...)

5. We also have Fully Booked Week which is incorporating world languages into the celebration! Lots of planning beginning for this fabulous event.

Could there be more? Of course there can, but those all happen a little farther into the new year so we don't have the planning underway just yet. We are definitely looking forward to more poetry competitions as the Shrewsbury Asia Poetry Competition goes into its third year.
