School Holiday Fun At Latrobe City LibrariesThere’s no need for the children to be bored these holidays, with the fun-filled program at Latrobe City’s library service offering entertainment for all. By Latrobe City Council - 11th September 2009 - Back to News Latrobe City’s children’s services library officer, Noeline Grayden, said that during the two weeks there would be puppetry, stories with a twist and musical fun to grab the attention.
"In week one, the libraries in Traralgon, Morwell and Moe will be hosting the puppet play ‘The Wizard’s Tale’. This modern day fairytale, hosted by Wacky the Wizard, has a large cast, including a fairy, a horse called Nellie, and a naughty little boy called Jason who gets turned into a spider by a witch. Grandad arrives to save the day, but he too has a spell cast upon him, and turns into a chair.
"Want to find out what happens? Then book your spot," Ms Grayden said.
‘The Wizard’s Tale’ by Don’t Move Puppet Theatre will be at Traralgon Library from 10.30am until 11.15 am; Morwell Library from 1.15 pm until
2 pm, and Moe Library from 3.30 pm until 4.15pm on Tuesday 22 September.
"For those in Churchill, Ralph Baker will present ‘The Three Little Pigs with a Twist’. This puppet show is a traditional story with a surprise ending," Ms Grayden explained.
‘The Three Little Pigs with a Twist’ will be held at Churchill Library at the Hub in Phillip Parade at 11.30am on Wednesday 23 September.
"In week two, children will be entertained by Cha Cha Sam in a 50 minute interactive show. If you’re looking for fun and funky music for big-spirited kids and their grownups, then don’t miss this.
"Made with love and laughter, Cha Cha Sam concerts have fabulous songs, silly dancing, ukulele riffs, and great backbeats. Kids and their grownups can let loose, and enjoy being themselves singing, dancing and having fun, but get your tickets fast," Ms Grayden said.
Cha Cha Sam will perform at Traralgon Library at 11am and at Morwell Library at 2.30pm on Thursday 1 October, and at Moe Library at 10.30am on Friday 2 October.
Cha Cha Sam CDs and musical instruments will be on sale at the concert. Credit card facilities are available.
All shows require an upfront payment of $5 per child. Bookings are essential. Contact your local library for tickets and further information: Churchill Library 5132 3900; Moe Library 5135 8350; Morwell Library 5128 5436; Traralgon Library 5176 3630.
