LENDING LIBRARY NEWS
The Lending Library has been moved to a new location and we have removed some of our older books. So, we are looking to collect gently used hardback books for the library (not more than 10 years old, if possible). Please place donated books on the small table at the library door or on the donated items table in the classroom. Thank you!!
