Learning to swim, watching Shrek the Musical or building a pirate ship are just a few of the school holiday activities being offered across the Fraser Coast.

“Pirate ship challenges, pirate movies and pirate crafts will take place at all branches – Hervey Bay, Maryborough, Tiaro, Howard and Burrum Heads,” she said.
