Children's Book Festival 2020 - Enjoy authors and storyteller events ONLINE!
Date and time:
24 September 2020 @ 00:00 to 31 December 2020 @ 00:00
Traditionally, during the month of October, primary school children from all over the county would visit local libraries to meet children’s authors and storytellers. Unfortunately the current situation did not allow for actual visits in 2020, so we invited 2 authors and a storyteller to deliver events straight into the classroom via the wonders of technology!
Authors Dave Rudden and Natasha Mac a’Bháird presented a fun talk for older classes and storyteller Chris Thomson entertained and enthralled younger classes. These sessions were made available to every primary school in Cavan and now you can watch them too!
