January 30, 2012 - Did you know that just 15 minutes of reading with your child can improve his/her literacy skills? This Family Literacy day students at St. Bernadette Catholic School visited the New Sudbury branch of the Greater Sudbury Public Library for a very special Celebrity Story Hour. The students toured the library, received their very own library card, signed out their favourite selections and participated attentively while guest reader, City Councillor, Joscelyne Landry-ALtmann read to them. The students were encouraged to take home their book selections and read along with their families. Mme Perron, Grade 3/4 teacher stated that, "Visiting the library has been an excellent opportunity for students to explore the world of books and familiarize themselves with the many resources available for them and their families. Many have stated that they want to come back and bring their parents along!" Share Tweet
