Fingers crossed for some amazing weather. Whether you are inside or out, we hope you enjoy some quality time with your family (and some yummy chocolate 😉) over this long weekend.

It’s Toy Library Awareness Week! This week is all about celebrating Toy Libraries, our volunteers, TOYS and the amazing communities we are a part of.
The theme for 2021 is Let’s have some fun!!
Last year was a tough one, and what better way to celebrate our Toy Libraries than to showcase the fun our Toy Libraries bring our tamariki and communities.

Thank you to FreshChoice Parklands for a $100 grant towards operating essentials. This meant we were able to get: printer ink and paper, laminating pouches, glue for repairs, and batteries for toys. All things that we need to have on hand to keep the toy library running smoothly.

Welcome back everyone to the Pegasus Toy Library!
Today was our very first session for 2021.
It was fabulous to see everyone today, many familiar faces as well as some new.
Just to let you know we had a few successful grant applications at the end of last year which enabled us to purchase some exciting new outdoor toys. Check them out under New Toys in the Toys dropdown menu.

As of tomorrow the country will be in Alert Level 2 which means we are very happy to let you know that the Toy Library will be re-opening next week on Wednesday 20th May at 10 am.
As you can imagine it won''t quite be business as usual, so here is some important information for how we will operate at level 2.
We are really looking forward to being open again and hope that we can make this work for everyone. If you have any concerns or queries please don''t hesitate to contact us.

As the time gets closer for the country to enter Level 2 we have been having a look at what this might look like for the toy library. Obviously this will depend on the specifics that will be released with the next Government update on Monday 11th May.
Some degree of social distancing will still be necessary so we will probably have to limit toy library access to one family at a time. This may work on an appointment system and/or a process of waiting in your car and we text or message you when you can come in.
An option we are looking at is click and collect. This will mean that you can browse and select online and we will have the toys ready for you.
We will send out another email next week once we have finalised our level 2 opening procedures.
Hope to see you soon!

In response to the government advice released yesterday on containing the COVID-19 virus, we have decided to close the toy library.
We have sent out an email to all members outlining some key points regarding toy hire. If you did not receive the email please contact us at pegasustoylibrary@hotmail.com
The library will be opening for a final special session tomorrow evening (Monday 23 March) from 6-8 pm for anyone who wishes to return and/or hire toys.

We know these are uncertain and unsettling times for a lot of people, and we want to reassure you that the health and well-being of our members are our top priority.
We are still opening as usual as we want to continue to deliver our service for as long as possible.
We are monitoring this situation carefully and will keep everyone updated should things change.
Returning toys to the library:
Thank you and take care.
