Book Fair Results

Our third and final Scholastic Book Fair was a great success. Just over $4300 was collected in purchases while almost $4000 worth of items was given away in the buy 1 get 1 free event.

The Sherwood library also received $800 in new materials for our library.  

Thank you to volunteers Carol Fitzpatrick and John MacKinnon for helping out with our May book fair. Thanks as well to students in 4Z, 5B, and 6A for their help with the set up and clean up of the book fair.
