Please also ask about other events taking place this week, such as some evening talks aimed at adults and older children and a Saturday cooking demonstration for key stage 2 and above, location and timings to be confirmed.

Families will also have the chance to win a Nintendo Wii Fit by creating a favourite family recipe.

The Family Learning Festival provides a range of exciting opportunities for families to learn together in an informal setting. Families can discover new skills, develop new interests and expand their knowledge in ways that may whet their appetite for further learning in the future.

A full programme of Feast! events and details of the family recipe competition will be available from Leicestershire libraries and on the website www.leics.gov.uk/flf from September 16th.
