Drury Community Library update

Mike Jones from Drury Community Library

Hello Drury Community Library followers, here is an update on a couple of upcoming events that you and your family may be interested in.

The library is supporting Dame Valerie Adams and the Middlemore Foundation warm up winter for 15,000 kids. You can see more information about this wonderful initiative at: www.jammiesforjune.org.nz...

Our “Jammies for June” event will be held at the library from 4-5pm on the 26th of June in conjunction with a twilight Matariki ma Puanga twilight story telling session. The library will be a “Jammies for June” drop off point and you can drop your contributions, new Jammies and/or Blankets here.

As you are probably aware, our earlier Robot Day Holiday Programme was cancelled due to the weather and is now rescheduled on Thursday 3rd July from 10am – 1.30pm. Put this in your diary, it is sure to be a popular event.

The library will be trialling opening on Tuesdays as a 6 month, this may be be extended depending on the uptake.

Damson Plum Jam is available at the library at $5.00 per jar, watch this space regarding availability of Marmalade.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
