Storytime is a fun-filled preschool programme tailored specifically for babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers. The programmes feature stories, songs, movement and interactive fun which foster children's literacy. Caregivers can bond with their children while enhancing their social, cognitive, motor and musical skills.

Storytime Puaawai takes place during term time only:

  • Mondays, 10.30-11.15am, Glenview Library

  • Tuesdays, 10.30-11.15am, Central Library

  • Wednesdays, 10.30-11.15am, Hillcrest Library at Hamilton Gardens

  • Fridays, 10.30-11.15am, Chartwell Library

  • Saturdays, 10.30-11.15am, Te Kete Aronui 

During school holidays or other times we are unable to hold Storytime Puaawai, you can check out Suzy's Book Corner to watch at home.

Please note children under 14 must always be accompanied by a caregiver in our libraries.
