A Smart Start
A Smart Start is an exciting early childhood initiative that is designed to make a difference for families with children aged 0 - 4 years.
A Smart Start involves government services, your local schools and community agencies, parents, caregivers, service clubs and local businesses all working together to encourage and support the positive development of children in communities in the Great Southern. For more information, please contact your local ‘A Smart Start’ Coordinator situated at the Kojonup Library.

Story Time
Reading starts at 10:30am and we read & sing for about 30 minutes. Please join our Library Officer and our guest Story Tellers as we bring books and rhymes into the lives of your children so that they too, can have the gift of literacy and the love of books. Check the Shire ENews or the Kojonup News for upcoming ‘Story Time’ dates. Come and join in for a little bit of fun & fantasy!
