Library News
Thank you very much to everyone who shopped at our Scholastic Book Fair. It was a resounding success! We earned $1800 worth of books for the Signal Hill Library and $1350 to put towards author visits and special library events. WOW!!! The time put in by the fantastic Grade 7 student volunteers and parent volunteers is greatly appreciated, we couldn't have done it without all of your support. The amazing staff and parent volunteers were Rachel Milner, Sharon Day, Nancy Coxhead, Wendy Brookbank, Margo Kettles,Tara Teigan, Paige Bell, Veronica Woodruff, Meredith Kemp, Marie Claude Godin, Claire Fuller, Sue Henry, Michelle Butler, Jody Gardner, and Brooke Meeker! Books that were ordered were delivered to students' classrooms on Monday, October 02, 2017. Thank you for encouraging your child to read. We look forward to seeing you at our next book fair!
