✨ Let’s All Read – Reading is Great
This motivational competition for primary school pupils has a 62-year tradition. It supports reading habits, information literacy, and introduces the world of books in a fun way. Throughout the school year, children visit the library, explore its spaces, and take part in creative workshops, discussions, exhibitions, and educational activities – including working with 3D printing, Ozobots, and micro:bits. During the event, we will award the most active participants who not only borrowed books but also actively engaged in library life.
✍️ I Write, You Write, We Write
This literary competition for primary school pupils encourages the development of literary talent and imagination. In 2026, its 24th edition is taking place. The competition runs in three age categories, covering poetry and prose. An expert jury composed of a regional writer and educators will select the most interesting works, whose authors will be ceremonially awarded during the event.

The “younger sister” of Osminky, also led by Ľudmila Čahojová, founded in autumn 2024, already delights with its expression and harmony.
