It’s time for our next\u00a0MLDHS\u00a0event\u00a0“Talking about Koalas”<\/strong>\u00a0which is being held on\u00a0Friday 14 September at 6.30pm for 7.00pm\u00a0<\/strong>at the Stirling Library.\u00a0 This promises to be another very informative evening for young and old so you have any young ones in your family please bring them along or invite any parents you know\u00a0 with young children to bring them along also. This is all part of our marvellous research project about\u00a0The<\/strong>\u00a0History of Bears<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Yes we do know that Koalas are\u00a0NOT<\/strong>\u00a0Bears \u2013 but they do feature in our special History Centre display which includes stories and images about:- Bears in the Wild; The History of the Teddy Bears; the place of Teddy Bears in family life; Teddy Bears as travelling companions; Bears in literature and music; the social role of Snuggle Bears, Welcome Bears and Trauma Bears. So far the display includes 59 Teddy Bears of all ages shapes and sizes and levels of wear and tear. My family Teddy Bear is there \u2013 watch out for the one with one eye, one ear and blue socks to cover his battered paws! \u00a0\u00a0Don\u2019t miss it, it is informative and fun! See you there!<\/p>\n

PS\u2026 and we even discovered South Australia\u2019s very own Bear \u2013 \u201cMarty Bear\u201d is in pride of place.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0If you have one then bring him along.<\/p>\n
