Compared to other ‘Toy Libraries' in Canterbury our competitive annual membership is value for money, and unlike other libraries we do not ask for ‘Duty Shifts’ or place you on a cleaning roster, we have an amazing team of volunteers to take care of this vital service for us.

Our annual membership for:

General Families and Schools/Organisations $95.00

Families with Challenges $60.00

All our resources can be hired for up to 4 weeks:

Families can hire up to 8 resources.

Organisation/Schools can hire up to 12 resources.

Each resource has a small hire charge, this ranges from $3.00 - $15.00.

*Please note - Organisations and Schools can only have 2 users/ per account, this keeps it clear and concise on hires for us collectively.

Please let us know as soon as possible if there is a piece missing or a damaged piece or part, we can then record this, so you are not fined upon return. 

If you have however lost or damaged a piece from a resource you will be charged a small fine to replace this, if we are unable to replace it from our extensive range of replacement pieces then you will be charged the full replacement cost of the resource as outlined in your Membership Agreement.

Give our friendly team a call or send an email to our coordinator to let us know. If we know when they are being returned it is all ka pai!

As per your Membership Agreement, if your resources are overdue you will be required to pay all overdue charges as without the resource back in the Library, we are losing revenue from it
