About the Activity
Library Bag Challenge for Teams
Did you know that many schools have a No Bag No Book policy?
One charity in WA needs over 10,000 library bags to gift to primary school-aged children so they can borrow a library book. We want to make sure every WA student has the opportunity to take a book home.
TeamLINQ have challenged ourselves to make and donate 10,000 library bags by the end of July 2026. We need your help to do this.
This challenge will have you working in teams to make as many high-quality library bags that you can in two hours. Through a facilitated activity, you will need to work together to allocate roles, plan out the tasks and quality check the bags.
Once completed, we will donate them to Dandelions WA to deliver to schools across all of WA.
This team building activity is ideal for small to medium sized groups looking to make a tangible contribution to the education of WA students.
Outcomes
Teamwork: groups work together to plan and make the bags
Collaboration: each person contributes to each bag with specific roles that may be rotated
Community Give Back: making a difference in the education of WA students
Connection: to the challenges that many students in WA experience
Digital Detox: the opportunity to work with your hands to make a tangible product
