Amazing Successes for our Bastion Learning Commons (AKA Library)


Congratulations Bastion!  We made over $2100 at the Festival du livre and thus we were able to save $850 towards our $1200 purchase of great French books.  A reminder that the English Book Fair is the first week of December. Thank you to parents Ravonne Foulger, Tanja Hamilton, Mae Dodge and son Isaac for their amazing help.  We will need more volunteers for the next Book Fair, so please contact me, teacher-librarian Shannon Murrells-Allaway if you can assist.
Family Library Day is up and running every Wed. after school til 2:45pm.  Thank you Theda Gyimesi for continuing this great tradition.  Families can sign out up to five extra books, read with their children, and continue to build our reading culture.
"200 Nights of Reading" started Oct 28th thank you to the amazing help of parent Ravonne Foulger.  Her design adjustment and photocopy hours are much appreciated.  Drop off completed sheets to the "200 Nights of Reading" drop box in the learning commons.  We will celebrate the first 100 nights with book marks, and 200 nights with a new book choice for your household!
Warm wishes and happy reading to all, Shannon Murrells-Allaway
