School holiday lifesavers – Frankston City Libraries

School holidays can get expensive, but not when you’re signed up to the Frankston City Libraries School Holiday eNews and you’re the first in line to book for their free school holiday program.

Frankston City Libraries delivers an array of school holiday activities with a mixture of both in-person and virtual events and caters for a broad age group. Their school holiday program is traditionally booked out weeks in advance.

From special Storytime and movie sessions, to science shows, arts and crafts, and author meet-and-greets, Frankston City Libraries is your one-stop-shop for school holiday fun and frivolity.

Not only does Frankston City Libraries have a great school holiday program, but they’re also late fine free!

“If you haven’t visited your local library in a while, now is the time with Frankston City Libraries removing late fines and offering an extensive program of events and activities,” said Frankston City Libraries Manager, Tammy Beauchamp. 

“If you thought you may have had a library late fine, we’ve wiped them all and we’d love to see you in one of our libraries soon. 

“We have a huge range of comics, graphic novels, junior fiction and young adult books in the collection, as well as eBook and eAudiobooks on your phone or device via our library apps, BorrowBox and Libby. There’s no need to be paying for your audiobooks and eBooks.

“We also have movie and music streaming services free with your library membership.”

You don’t have to live within the Frankston City municipality to become a member of Frankston City Libraries and you can be a member at as many libraries as you like. If you work in, play in or visit Frankston, it’s as easy as signing up via the library website today.

Frankston City Libraries offers a range of programs from their much-loved Storytime sessions, FrankTALK author meet-and-greets, STEM activities, crafts and event technology classes for those who’d like some help with their new device or advice on choosing the right device for their needs.

So much has changed in libraries and it might be time to pop in and say hello to the team. They’ve also got the latest popular releases in a special one week loan collection called Read Now (lt’s ok, you can renew your book twice if you don’t finish it within the week). 

Frankston, Carrum Downs and Seaford libraries all have free Wi-Fi, public computers and study spaces. If you have someone in your life studying, make sure you check out Studiosity, the library’s online 24/7 tutor. The Studiosity tutoring service caters for Grade 3 right up to first year post-graduate university, and it’s free with your Frankston City Libraries membership. 

Studiosity can also assist with job seeking. The platform allows you to upload the job advertisement along with your resume and cover letter, and Studiosity’s specialists will help you to tailor your application to the job advertisement. 

Frankston Library is open until 7pm weeknights and Carrum Downs is now open until 10pm every Thursday night, thanks to the Libraries After Dark program. 

Libraries continue to work closely with vulnerable people in our community and if you have someone who can no longer visit their library, Frankston City Libraries offers a Home Library Service. 


If you’d like any information on what the team at Frankston City Libraries can offer or to sign up to receive the library’s School Holiday eNews, please contact the team on 9784 1020 or visit the library website at library.frankston.vic.gov.au

  • 🚨WARNING: scroll on by if tattoos aren’t your cup of tea!🫣
I’d been toying with wanting a tattoo to commemorate the relationship I held with my godfather since his passing. 
From my very start we were kindred spirits - the wild ones, the hey ho, we won’t go when/wherever we’re supposed to, the loving, giving, sharing, caring out loud ones - mixed with very strong wills. 
We did what we wanted, though it may have shaved a few years off our parents lives (sorry about the ditching school, mom), but if you asked us for something - a favour, a ride, a buck - we were there in a flash. 
We are the (self proclaimed) black sheep. 
Part of the pack, but a little different. 
So this one is for you, Uncle Walt! I know you’re watching. 
With me forever. ❤️⚫️🐑

  • 💦 Been to @waterbombali ?!?!
What a mostly awesome day! 

I had just been talking with daughter, swinging our clasped hands as we walked from one slide to another, and saying, y’know, when you’re my age you probably won’t remember this family vacation at all.

Then she got stuck in a tube slide..her lanky body not having the mass to go back up, she instead slid back and forth like the pendulum pirate ship rides until coming to a stop and having to climb her way out on her own.
🥴
So I’m assuming that 4 seconds will be etched for all of eternity instead of the jet skiing, cabanas, parasailing, swimming, or anything else magical. 
🤦🏻‍♀️
Today calls for a chillax day. Nothing heavy. One she’ll forget. 
😂☀️🪂🍹❤️🛝💦😬

  • HARD ROCK HOTEL BALI 🎸🤘
We ❤️ you! We soooo needed this!
The pool area is BEYOND and brimming with lounge chairs, cabanas for rent, and yummy drinks from the swim up bar, Love Shack or Love Shack junior.
We’ll have two Kit Kat dolls, please!😁😁
It’s not too busy here in Kuta, yet!

  • WORRY. 
Are they going to be ok? Am I doing a good enough job? I wish they’d talk to me more. Why aren’t they talking to me more? What are they thinking? Who are they talking to, if not me? I hope they know they can. And I’ve got their backs. And I’m always here. Worrying.
