Maidenhead & Windsor

Maidenhead Dads, mums, children and anyone who enjoys a good scary story can get into the Halloween spirit early by joining in a special spooky Autumn Riddle Storytime on Saturday October 14 at Cox Green Library.

Stacia Keogh, a popular local storyteller with a reputation for lively and entertaining presentations, will be leading the Maidenhead spooky story session.

The session is part of the Royal Borough's contribution to Family Learning Week (Saturday October 7 – Sunday October 15), an annual event designed to encourage informal learning within the home.

It is also the launch of the Cox Green Library family reading group, which will meet one Saturday a month at the Highfield Lane venue. Families with children aged five to 12 are particularly welcome to find out about the new group and help think up a name for it.

The event is free and runs from 10am until 12 noon. There is the chance to sign up for the family reading group and enjoy some refreshments, with Stacia's storytelling taking place between 10.30 – 11.30am. No booking is required – simply turn up on the day.
