Spring in Rondebosch
Spring has sprung in Rondebosch, and the children's library is blooming. A Reading Tree has sprouted, and needs the help of 8- to 14-year-olds to grow. To find out how, do drop in and have a look!
The fairies are also out in full force. They've left a ton of fairy books for kids to read!
Please visit us to see these and other exciting developments, and, as always, feel free to leave a comment or suggestion.
