Class visits
The library service welcomes primary school classes, nursery, pre-school and play groups to visit the library during opening hours. We request that group leaders contact us in advance of your visit either with a request to deliver a session, or simply to know you are coming - especially at our smaller libraries where we can temporarily re-arrange the furniture so the session can be run in the children's area of the library or meeting room.
Types of class visit
The library service offers three types of class visit which can be tailored to suit your group. We ask you to provide us with additional information about the subjects you are currently covering so we can prepare materials ready for your visit.
