Take a seat and join us for a cuppa, some popcorn, and a free screening of the movie The Penguin Lessons at South Perth Library.

Based on the novel, The Penguin Lessons is the heartwarming true story of a disillusioned Englishman (Steve Coogan) who takes a job at a prestigious Argentine boarding school in 1976. When he rescues a penguin from an oil slick, his life is transformed in ways he never could have imagined.  

After the film, you're invited to stay for a relaxed cup of tea and a friendly chat.
