Santa visit to Virginia Library during Quiet Time

Virginia Library welcomed an extra special visitor during monthly Quiet Time. Santa came along to meet children and their families to enjoy a calm and sensory experience that was pure magic! This was arranged and coordinated by Bright side of Dyslexia Cavan and we would like to congratulate them on organising this fantastic event for children with additional needs. Virginia Library staff got to meet the man of the moment too which was a real treat!
