Creativity rewarded Posted on 03 May 2022 With the school holidays and ANZAC Day, April was a busy month for our libraries, not to mention the issuing of more than 38 000 items across the district. It was lovely to see the care and passion that patrons put into their submissions to ANZAC Day displays in our libraries.

Donations to the RSA poppy appeal through pins and ANZAC biscuits were appreciated. Read on Events Cambridge & Te Awamutu Competitions
