Feedback 

“We attended the Passport Adventures this summer in the JC The Heights Library and me and my kids love it! We learned a lot about different countries, culture, food and history. My kids always look forward to going each week. Now they love reading about different places and learning more about it. There’s also other interesting activities every week for kids and adults. Special thanks to Ms Mary and Ms Alex for such an engaging, fun and educational activities.”
