Paint Wanneroo REaD | Reading Corner

DAILY

Location:: In the Food Court

The Paint Wanneroo REaD, Reading Corner is a community space where families, carers and the wider community are invited to pick up a book and read to a child.

As a community initiative all children's books within the Reading Corner are donated. To help us keep the Reading Corner alive, if you have children's books you no longer need, donate these next time you're at the centre at the Information Desk and give them a second lease of life.

Events

Join the Clarkson Library in the Reading Corner on the second Monday of every month for Tiny Tots Storytime and Craft. Click here to find out more.
