Cobden Storytime receives visit from SESCobden Library had a Safety themed story time on Friday 18.04.2008, with a visit from the State Emergency Services (SES). Attendance was fantastic with about 30 Mums, Dads, Grandmums and Granddads and kids attending! Lots of fun was had by all. Bob and Ron from the Cobden SES were very kind and informative and gave the kids a tour of their truck and sounded the siren. |
