The Goulburn Valley Libraries holiday program is jam-packed this year, with a wide range of craft activities and sessions for children to engage with.

Those visiting the Shepparton Library on Wednesday, July 10, enjoyed a session where they designed their very own wooden animal magnets to keep and take home.

Concentrating closely, the kids painted the shapes of animals in an array of colours, bringing to life a selection of rainbow serpents and colourful mammals.

The News photographer Rechelle Zammit went along.
