Drop-in Lego Club

Newby & Scalby Library is running its drop-in Lego Club on Saturday mornings, and the next session is on 5 December. It's for children aged 5 to 12, and it's exactly what it sounds like: a space for them to come in and build with Lego for a couple of hours.

There's a bit of a story behind it. The club grew out of the library's holiday sessions, which proved so popular that the staff decided to make it a regular fixture on the Saturday morning programme rather than just something for the school breaks. That's how it became a drop-in, so you don't need to book ahead—you just turn up when it suits you.

It's run by the library staff, and the age range is 5 to 12, so it works for kids at opposite ends of primary school. Because it's a drop-in, it's easy to fit around your Saturday morning without committing to a full term of something. If you've got a child who'd rather be building than doing almost anything else, this is a good way to get them out of the house and into the library for a bit.

It runs from 10.30am to 12 noon at Newby & Scalby Library, 450 Scalby Road, Scarborough, YO12 6EE. It's a free event, though donations to help keep the library running are always welcome.
