While our local library at Charing Cross is closed, do visit their website by clicking on the blue tab below. The Westminster Library Service offers many great resources, including a wide range of downloadable ebooks for children and all the family, as well as access to the children’s encyclopaedia Britannica Library Junior which supports the curriculum. These resources can be accessed for free by creating an account using a library barcode:

Audiobooks are a great way of developing children's reading skills and enjoyment. Children could read along with a paper copy, listen as they play, doodle or sit back and relax!

For as long as schools are closed, Audible’s children’s stories are free to stream on your desktop, laptop, phone or tablet! Click the link below to explore their collection and start listening:
