Winnipeg Public Library

Summer is almost here and Winnipeg Public Library is working to make sure it’s full of fun and learning for children and families!

We’ve just launched  our Summer Reading page bringing together all the TD Summer Reading Club and programming information you’ll need.

We have great programs lined up for pre-schoolers, families and school-age children (include special programs just for Tween ages 9-12).  You’ll find story times, writing workshops, a video workshop, Family Literacy Fun Days, Lego Block Parties, musical performers and magicians and readings by Goldeyes players – lots to choose from!

The highlight of our summer with the community is the TD Summer Reading Club – a reading incentive program for school-age children and pre-readers and their families, too.

Visit any of our  20 branches to join the Club. No required reading lists - just read for the fun of it! 

Kids can have fun, improve their reading skills, and reduce summer learning loss. Receive a free activity book, reading calendar log and stickers when you register for the club.  Track your reading to earn ballots for great prize draws in August.

Join us for the annual visit by Goldeyes baseball players who share with kids the fun and importance of reading.

Library Night at the Ballpark is August 1st!  Thanks to the Goldeyes for donating game tickets for a draw at each library.

Registration begins Monday, June 24 - the program ends Friday, August 9.

Grade 5 Farewell

Good evening,

Just a friendly reminder that the grade 5 Farewell will be held at 2:00 pm tomorrow.  If you are unable to make it, Mme Lachance will have a copy of the video full of pictures to purchase.  More information will be available tomorrow.

Students may wear nice clothing if they like.  Keep in mind, they will be going out for recess and they will be wearing their Assiniboine t-shirts during the ceremony.

As always, please feel free to email me if you have any questions.

Baby photos

Good afternoon,

Mme Lachance is collecting baby photos for the grade 5 farewell video.  Many of the students have already brought in a photo while studying family life, so they can use those photos.

If your child has not yet brought in a photo, please have it in by Thursday as Mme Lachance will be working on the video over the weekend.

Merci,
Mme C

Presentation

      Bullying presentation

      June 5, 2013

     This morning students from grades 4 and 5 attended a presentation on bullying.  The presentation was given by Alyssa Wyspianski, a former student and now Miss Teen Manitoba.   Alyssa talked about ways to prevent bullying and help people who are being bullied.  She also shared her experience about being bullied and how adults helped her.  She talked about exclusion which is also another way of being bullied.  She really wanted to be part of a group when she was growing up and had difficulty being accepted in the “cool group”.   As Teen Manitoba, Alyssa shares her story with various groups hoping to help people realize that there is help out there.  You can tell an adult you trust, your friends or parents. Our students were engaged in the presentation and asked a lot of questions.  The more tools we give them the better they will be equipped to deal with situations if they arise.

A few notes ...

Dear parents,

Tomorrow the students will be participating in the Track and Field events.  Just a friendly reminder that your child should bring the following items:

-      -  Proper running shoes

-       - A bag lunch

-       - Sunscreen

-       - A bottle of water

As well, we will be going to Fort Gibraltar the following day (Friday June 7^th).  Just a reminder that your child will also need a bag lunch on that day. 

The daycare will be notified that the students will not be eating downstairs for those 2 days.

Please email me if you have any questions (scraciun@sjsd.net).
