Fingal Libraries launched its annual Summer Stars Reading programme on Tuesday 14th June at St. Patrick's Senior National School in Skerries with a special visit from the Fingal Mobile Library. 

Summer Stars is an exciting, reading-based programme available free of charge to all children across the country. It will run in all Fingal Libraries until the end of August with the ultimate goal of encouraging reading during the summer holidays. All children are invited to register at their local Fingal Library for the annual summer reading challenge, with rewards and incentives along the way and a grand finale event at the end for all participants. 

As part of the programme, a range of children’s events will be held in Fingal Libraries during the summer to suit all interests – including author visits, Lego technic workshops, sensory cooking classes, interactive science workshops, creative writing, arts and crafts, and coding workshops. 

Mayor of Fingal Cllr Seána Ó Rodaigh commented “The Summer Stars programme each year is wonderful way to engage with children and foster a love of reading so be sure to register with your local Fingal Library”. 

County Librarian, Betty Boardman, added: “Fingal Libraries are delighted to announce the return of the Summer Stars Reading Adventure for children. We have a fun filled package of live and in person events and activities for the family to enjoy, as well as a Summer Reading Challenge.” 

For details of activities and events, please pick up a copy of Fingal Libraries’ Summer brochure at your local library or view it online at Fingal Libraries’ website.  You can also keep up to date with Summer Stars’ events by following Fingal Libraries on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
