Library books

We are delighted with the response to our open Borrow-a-book policy this year. With the exception of a few high-demand "special books", our Junior Kindergarten students are allowed to borrow as many classroom books as they want, for as long as they need them. We are aware that when books are being well-read by 3-and 4-year olds, they will sometimes sustain damage/ go missing, and we try to maintain a quality classroom collection through donations and thrift shops.

We would like to start offering our students access to the wider variety of books in the school library. Unlike classroom books, library books must be returned on time, and must be replaced if lost or damaged. Please let us know if you have concerns about your child's ability to be responsible for a library book by completing the following form:

___ Yes, I would like my child to visit the school library each week.

___ No, I would prefer that my child continue to borrow from the classroom library for now. I will let the school know when he/ she is ready.
