Happy New Year!
Once again the Library is back in business and there are exciting events planned for the Library:
Book Review Club :
Just a reminder of the Book Review Club which is available for anyone to join who is in grades 5 to 8. I'm expanding the Club to include the younger grades. Students in the Club can help the Library choose books they want to read, and also review and rate books!
Battle of the Books:
I will be beginning the Burlington Public Library Battle of the Books competition for grades 6 to 8 shortly. I would welcome parent volunteers for this activity as outdoor duties during the lunch period sometimes make it difficult for me to hold meetings.
Scholastic Book Fair:
Just a note on the November Book Fair which raised $2780.06 which I used to purchase books. I achieved my target of $5000.00 in sales almost to the penny and was able to update and enrich our Library collection. Thanks to all who purchased who helped the Library reach it's target.
Confirmation:
A great, and reliable resource on the Catholic Saints can be found at the Catholic Encyclopedia Website:
