J3 VISIT TO PUSTAKA MIRI

On Wednesday 20 April, J3 visited Pustaka Miri. Pustaka Miri is the regional library of Pustaka Negeri Sarawak. It is linked to Pustaka Negeri Sarawak via Information Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure. Pustaka Miri is an epitome of digital library that provides a combination of print as well as electronic and digital information resources. There is a special area for children, The Children Infotheque :- there are books, computers and activities for children are held here every Saturday and Sunday morning. Do send your children here to enjoy the different activities available every weekend.

And the children ........... enjoying the dance !

The children putting down their best feet 'and hands' forward to the dance ~ and had a lot of fun ! After the story-telling session, it was time to look at the books and to borrow.

The children chose one book each to bring back to school.

Happy with the books and some can't wait to read them !

There are books of different genres ~ some children like factual books.

Browsing books with friends.

Queuing up to get the books recorded.

And a BIG THANK YOU to the staff of Pustaka Miri!

Each child thanking the staff and were given a momento to bring home.

The children were pleasantly surprised with the presentation of the momento - something they will cherish from the visit. Time to go ~ walking back to the bus. Ms Ann guiding the children up into the bus.
