Kindergarten, Here I Come
What:
The Humboldt County Library is planning a series of programs for children entering kindergarten this fall. “Kindergarten, Here I Come!” is a celebration of one of life’s early milestones. The program includes video, stories, activities and crafts. Kindergarten teachers will be available at most sites to answer questions and to provide reassurance to both children and parents.
On Thursday, August 19 at 6:30 PM, the program will be held at the Arcata Library. On the following Tuesday, August 24 at 6:30 PM, the program will be offered at the Trinidad Library. The next evening, Wednesday, August 25 at 6:30 PM the program will be presented at the Main Library in Eureka.
The Humboldt County Library presents these programs in partnership with KEET TV’s Ready to Learn Service and First 5 Humboldt.
These programs are free and all ages are welcome. The Library’s programs and services are accessible to persons with disabilities. Please let us know if you require assistance. The Humboldt County Library is located at 1313 3rd Street in Eureka. For further information call JoAnn Bauer at 269-1910 or visit our website at www.humlib.org.
