The Pembroke Public Library in Pembroke, Ontario, is preparing for its upcoming March Break activities, which are set to run from Monday, March 16, to Friday, March 20, 2026. The programs are scheduled to coincide with the spring holiday for the Renfrew County District School Board to provide local children with educational and hands-on activities while schools are out of session.
Registration for this year’s sessions typically opens two weeks prior to the break, with the library encouraging families to sign up early as spots for morning and afternoon sessions often fill quickly. The upcoming lineup features a variety of community-focused events, including family story time sessions at 10:30 a.m. Previous specialized workshops at the library have included the ‘Kids Can Cook’ series, where children ages 7 to 12 learn culinary skills like making a noodle stir-fry for a nominal $2.00 fee to cover ingredients.
Parents and caregivers should visit the library branch at 237 Victoria Street to register their children and complete any required paperwork, such as photo waivers, in person. While most workshops are offered free of charge, the library aims to maintain affordable and accessible programming for the community during the week-long break.
