Introducing The Little Book Library
An exciting arrival has come to Montague Park, the home of the Birth Tree Project.
When families gathered on March 4 for the 2017 unveiling of the Birth Tree they also celebrated the addition of The Little Book Library; a special occasion rung in by Steve Toms and Deputy Mayor Cr Lillian O’Connor.
Rotary Frankston Peninsula 2.0 worked closely with the council to create a design for the library. Construction was completed thanks to the help of the Mornington Men’s Shed and Bunnings, signage was kindly donated by Supersigns.
Montague Park is more than just a place for play – families and children can look at their names on the Birth Tree or in our Family Garden, and now they are also welcome to grab a book to read in the park or in the comfort of their homes. The library has a daily monitor. For more information, head to rotarypeninsula.org/birth-treeÂ
