The Rubberband Band

As part of this year’s Summer Reading Challenge theme, ‘Read to the Beat’, join us at Blairgowrie Library for an exciting musical crafts session for children aged 5 to 10 years, where we will use rubber bands and other materials to make instruments that we can shake, buzz, and toot!

Under-8s must be accompanied by an adult. Book your spot at Blairgowrie Library.

Summer Reading Challenge 2026
The 2026 Summer Reading Challenge, “Read to the Beat!”, is a free programme for children aged 4–11. It invites children to read six books during the summer holidays, with a fun theme around music, sound, and stories. Families can sign up at any Culture Perth & Kinross library. Children will receive a challenge pack, collect stickers as they go, and earn a certificate and medal when they finish.

The challenge supports children to keep reading over the summer and feel confident and ready for the new school year.
