What's on at Henbury Library?

For Adults


Reminiscence Day on Thursday 20th November
How much do you know about Henbury & Brentry? Take part in our reminiscence quiz!
Do you have any old photographs/newspaper cuttings/stories you would like to share?
Join us for tea and a chat - and take a look at our photo archives, old maps and other historical documents.

Want a bite sized book? Try one of our Quick Reads - short, exciting books by bestselling authors and celebrities for adults who are new to reading, have lost the reading habit, or who prefer a quick read.
Quick Reads are both fiction and nonfiction and include the likes of Gordon Ramsay, Colin Jackson, Josephine Cox and a new Dr Who story.

Not much of a reader? Start now with our Six Book Challenge in association with Costa Coffee. The Six Book Challenge invites people to read six books and record their reading in a diary in order to receive a certificate to celebrate their achievement - you'll also be entered into a prize draw!
"I never thought I could read one book, never mind six! I feel so proud. I've never felt so good about myself. I feel like I can do anything now." Noleen Vine, 2008 Challenge completer, Warrington.


For Children

Rockin' Babies every Monday 10.30 til 11 - Singing, rhyming, clap-along fun for babies and toddlers aged from 6 months to 2 1/2 years.

Join in with stories and crafts every Tuesday 10 til 10.30 at our Pre-School story time and craft sessions.

In Year 7? Want some Homework help? Come to our weekly Homework Club on Tuesdays 3.30 til 4.30 with free computer access and printing.
We don't just read, we write too! The 7-11's monthly story group meets on the 3rd Saturday at 11.30 every month. Each month we have a theme; sometimes we work together or separately and we also use the computers. Even better we have our own special 'soap' set in Henbury and we add to the story each meeting. We have even produced a book of fantastic adventures. Come and join us if you have a story to tell.
