On Friday the 23th of April the 5th Class from the St. Munchins GNS were in the Watch House Library and they took part in the Create a Character Competition.

At the start of the Game the whole class created a New Twits Character together.

Then each group of girls created a character together. They did that with pictures from different body parts of people cut randomly from magazines. 

The Best New Character will be decided by the Library Staff in the middle of May!

A North Side Story - The Twits by Roald Dahl

Roald Dahl's classic book the Twits has been nominated as Limerick's book for the northside, as part of a unique programme aimed at getting children into reading.  Almost 100 local primary school children were at the library for the launch of the Limerick Northside Book programme. 

An initiative of the Northside Local Education Committee , every child in the area will have the opportunity to read the bestseller, with a number of events bringing the book to life taking place in the library and the local schools over the next few weeks.

At the launch the children were treated to an impromptu reading from the book by local actor Myles Breen, while northside Councillor Michael Hourigan was also present to join in on the fun.
