Bundaberg Regional Libraries are hosting a range of free activities for children and families during the Easter school holidays across Bundaberg, Childers, Gin Gin and Woodgate. The program includes creative dinosaur-themed crafts, painting, gliders, board games, Lego sessions and relaxed drop-in activities.
