The Write Out West Family Fun Day is listed in Penrith on 28 November 2026. This guide covers what we know about the day and the library storytimes listed around it. The day's details, such as the program, times and any cost, are as the organisers publish them, so check their page before you go.

About the day

Write Out West Family Fun Day is a family event in Penrith. We don't have a venue address, start time, price or age range, so please confirm those with the organisers. Plan to arrive a little early, and take water, snacks and sun protection if any of it is outdoors.

Library storytimes nearby

These library sessions are listed in the wider area. We don't have their dates, so check each library to see whether they run on the same day.

  • Saturday Storytime for ages 1 to 7 at Liverpool City Library
  • Preschool Storytime at Baulkham Hills Library, Castle Hill Library and Vinegar Hill Memorial Library in Rouse Hill
  • Water Safety Storytime at Granville Library, Wentworthville Library and Guildford Library

They are a good fit for little kids who like books and songs. The Water Safety Storytime sessions suit families who want a gentle start on talking about water safety. Ask the library about ages and whether you need to book.

Making a day of it

  • Pick one main plan, either the fun day or a storytime, and keep the other as a back-up.
  • Penrith, Liverpool and the Hills libraries are a drive apart, so don't try to fit all of them into one day.
  • Bring a small bag with snacks, water, a change of clothes and a book for the car.
  • Check the weather and plan for shade or a wet-weather option.
  • Leave early if your child has had enough. A short, happy visit is worth more than a long one.

Event details can change, so use the Write Out West organisers' own page and each library's page for the latest information.

Built from Roolu's local listings. Dates, prices and ages can change, so check with each organiser before you go.
