This program is supervised by library staff to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all participants. Young people are supervised whilst inside the library, but are not required to stay for the full session, as per our usual library hours. Once young people have left the library, council staff cannot offer any supervision. No forms are required to attend, but young people will be given the opportunity to share an emergency contact with us should they choose.
