Me to We Meetings (Aboriginal Spotlights & jewelry making), Origami workshops with student Malcolm, Red Cedar Book Club meetings, teacher resource sharing & collection development, and volunteers galore fill our library every lunch hour, as well as in the mornings and after school! Parkview students thanks for making learning such an exciting and great company experience! Thank you also to the numerous student volunteers who have been helping with creating displays, shelf reading confused book shelves, shelving returned books, and planning fun activities for the library and all students and staff. For example, stay tuned for "Reading in Unusual Places," Library Video, dust jacket designs, and virtual scavenger hunt competitions, and more.
A special thanks to Cathy Doudican who volunteered in our library numerous, numerous hours in Feb. and helped with a back log of many library needs - Ms. M, students, and staff really appreciated your efforts. We hope to experience her talents again in May. Any other parent and student volunteers are always welcome.
Lastly, if anyone has recipe books, especially to assist students with bake sales and/or learning about the cultures of the world (Italian, Asian, Mexican, Greek, etc.), please drop them off with Ms. Northway or to Ms. Murrells (Wed & Fridays). May the force of reading fill your hearts and minds daily. Ms. M.

Family Library Days, Parkview Library, Each Wed., 2-2:30pm
Family Literacy Week inspired me to begin “Family Library Days,” modelled after Bastion Elementary, Salmon Arm – great idea Mme Gervais and parent volunteer Suzy Taylor!
Wednesdays from 2-2:30pm generous parent volunteer Peter Sims (with wonderful daughter Maya) will be here to run Parkview Family Library Days. Drop by to read your children some books and, if you’d like, sign some out to take home (1 week loans). Mr. Sims will set up accounts for interested families. Ms Murrells “passionate about reading” teacher-librarian will be close at hand too. We look forward to seeing you - Mr. Peter Sims and Ms. Shannon Murrells.
The more you read, the more things you know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go. – Dr. Seuss
