Dear Parents and Guardians,
Did you know… over 15 million Canadian adults will have low literacy by 2031? We at LBS know the importance of learning to love reading and all kinds of books! We also want to share that passion with others!
Literacy week is coming and the Students in Action are organizing a BOOK DRIVE/EXCHANGE!
Please donate any books you don’t want anymore to our book drive. For every 2 books donated, your child will receive one book ticket.
YES that means that if you donate 40 books, your child will receive 20 tickets and be able to choose 20 books to take home from all our collected books!
We will be collecting and organizing all the donated books in the gym for selection on Thursday March 22nd from 10:30 to 11:30.
So, what will happen to all the extra books collected and not chosen? We are so glad you asked that! The extra books will be donated to a school or organization in need. Students in Action are very excited to be able to give back to our community as well as offer a book exchange for the students of LBS.
Please help us to make a difference by sending in your gently used children’s books for the book drive. We kindly ask that the books are in good condition and do not have any significant damage. The books donated need to be appropriate for children aged 2 to 14. This would include: fiction, non-fiction, comic books, graphic novels, chapter books and picture books.
Thank your your support!
Kind Regards,
Students in Action
