North Clondalkin Library is having a Sports Day on July 28 for ages six plus, a Treasure Hunt in Collinstown Park on August 18 at 2pm and Storytime in the Garden which is on every Thursday at 3pm.

Meanwhile Palmerstown Library Digital Hub is having a Scavenger Hunt for families in Glenaulin Park on Wednesday, July 21 in the afternoon.
