This year to celebrate National Youth Week, and to have fun in the school holidays, we had all sorts of fun activities in the Library.
To kick off the celebrations, we played a fantastic Dungeons and Dragons zombie adventure! Beset by a horde of the undead, our teens played anti-heroes who have to fight the ravenous zombie invasion as well as dealing with a case of mistaken identity from some ignorant goodie-two-shoe adventurers who happen upon the fray.
Followed by a Steampunk Jewellery workshop where we created clockwork-inspired masterpieces out of beads, wire, cogs, gears and watch parts. See the slide show below to have a look at some of our wonderful creations.
If either of these activities look like fun, then keep an eye on the Mosman Library Teens event page for more awesome activities.
If you’re interested in participating in a regular Dungeons and Dragons game at the Library then fill out the following form:

Review:
It was the best book I have ever read! I could not put it down! I woke up early every morning to read it.
About Stormbreaker:
When his guardian dies in suspicious circumstances, fourteen-year-old Alex Rider finds his world turned upside down. Forcibly recruited into MI6, Alex has to take part in gruelling SAS training exercises. Then, armed with his own special set of secret gadgets, he’s off on his first mission to Cornwall, where Middle-Eastern multi-billionaire Herod Sayle is producing his state-of-the-art Stormbreaker computers. Sayle has offered to give one free to every school in the country – but there’s more to the gift than meets the eye.

Review:
The most amazing book series ever! If you love never-ending action, you’ll drool over CHERUB.
More about CHERUB:
A terrorist doesn’t let strangers into her flat because they might be undercover police or intelligence agents, but her children bring their mates home and they run all over the place
The terrorist doesn’t know that one of these kids has bugged every room in her house, made copies of all her computer files and stolen her address book.
The kid works for CHERUB
CHERUB agents are aged between 10 and 17. They live in the real world, slipping under adult radar and getting information that sends criminals and terrosrits to jail.
