How can my child join a club?

You can sign up for Art Club, Book Lovers Club and Young Writers Club by registering for the Atlas program. Registration is free.  

During the Atlas registration process, you will be asked to select which clubs your child would like to join. 

How do online events work?

All online events are run using Zoom.  

Zoom links will be emailed to club members on the morning of each meeting. 

The dates of the next club meetings can be found on the Atlas homepage. Full term details can be found on the club pages for Art Club, Book Lovers Club and Young Writers Club.  

All online meetings are live and interactive, and participants are encouraged to type questions and comments into the Q&A chat.  

All messages will be visible to the presenters but are not visible to any other participants.  

To provide a safe online environment, participants are not able to share their video or microphone. Participants will only be able to see the video of Library staff and guest presenters.  

When participants use the link to join the webinar they may be asked to download Zoom if they don’t already have it installed. They do not need to set up a Zoom account to participate.    

We do not provide recordings of our club meetings.  

Further instructions for joining a Zoom webinar are available in Zoom’s Webinar FAQ.    

How does my child submit their work?

After each club meeting, members are given the opportunity to share their work on the Atlas website, if they would like to do so.

When children upload their writing or drawing to the website, they will be asked for their first name, the first letter of their surname, their age, and their Moon Guild. These answers will be shown publicly with their writing or drawing.  

They will also be asked for an email address, which will not appear publicly. This must be Parent/Guardian email address. The email address is used to link all of the submissions from your child onto their individual gallery page, so they are able to see all of their work in one place.  

Children can choose if they want their work to be published for everyone to see on the Atlas website, or if they only want it to be seen by the Library staff who run the club.  

All submissions are moderated by Library staff before they are published to ensure any sensitive information or inappropriate material is not made public.  

How can I change the clubs my child has signed up to?  

You can add or remove a club at any time.  

To remove a club, open any Atlas or club email that we have sent to you. At the bottom of the email, select the Unsubscribe preferences button.  

You will then be asked to select which clubs you would like to unsubscribe from. Select Yes for any club you would like to opt out of.

To join a new club, submit another Atlas registration and select all clubs you would like to participate in.
