Read4Plenty
Whakatāne Libraries are building a reading community - kia whakawhānui i te hapori kaipānui through a developing programme that was piloted in November 2020, called Read4Plenty.
Read4Plenty aims at engaging primary and intermediate school children through library outreach activities encouraging an enjoyment of reading and a lifelong relationship with local libraries.
We invite schools in the district to contact us if they are interested in participating.
