ÉCOLE BRAEMAR ELEMENTARY LIBRARY/BIBLIOTHÈQUE
September 14, 2020
Welcome back Braemar students and parents! I hope you all had a fabulous summer. This year the Braemar Library will be up and running but things will be different. The library space is closed so I will be delivering a travelling library program. I am looking forward to introducing books and to teaching lessons in classrooms. At this time, I will be bringing a bin of books to teachers that can be used in the classroom. Individual students are not able to sign out books right now but I will let you know as soon as this changes. In June many books were not returned and are overdue. If you still have a Braemar library book at home, please return it to your classroom teacher who will deliver it to me. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at [email protected]. Warm regards, Mrs. Ross |
