LEGO Star Wars set donated to children’s club

A coveted LEGO Star Wars set was donated to a children’s club in Oxfordshire to prevent children’s ‘disappointment’ while building.

Oxfordshire’s Grove Library regularly runs a LEGO club for young children to flex their building skills. With sets often being built multiple times over, a group of kids were recently disappointed when building LEGO Star Wars 75257 Millennium Falcon, only to find that it didn’t have all the correct pieces.

However, Friends of Grove Library bought a brand-new version of the iconic set, complete with all the right pieces, so that the kids could complete the build.

“This is a marvellous gift for the LEGO Club and rescues the disappointment the children felt when realising, after several weeks of work, that the donated LEGO sadly had too many pieces missing to build the Falcon,” library manager Kathryn Leech told Oxford Mail. “I would…say a massive thanks to the Friends group for their continued and generous support.”

Local children are welcome to join the LEGO club, which meets from 4pm to 5pm twice a month on the first and third Monday. Meetings take place at the library next to Millbrook Primary School in the village near Wantage and is open to children from school years five and six.

I write about all the very best fandoms – and that means LEGO, of course. Spending so much time looking at and talking about LEGO sets is dangerous for my bank balance, but the LEGO shelves are thriving. You win some, you lose some.
