that encourages children to read over the summer break. Children who read over the summer go back to school better prepared to succeed. This year we will be encouraging the use of creativity, cooperation, and individuality through play, teamwork, and of course reading! The Summer Reading Club is open to children 5+ who attended school in 2022/23. If your children have not yet started school, we have Read and Rhyme and we will have special events for little ones and all ages throughout the summer. Follow our Summer Reading Club Facebook Page @SPLSummerReading to see the latest activities and challenges and to share your news with us. If you are not on Facebook contact us at 403-742-2292. We can put you on an email list or find another way to keep you up to date.
