Give the Gift of Reading!
Fern School Council’s Equity and Inclusion Committee has partnered with local bookstore, Another Story, to develop an updated list of unique books that will reflect the diversity of our student population and let them see themselves. These books focus on equity, inclusion, and diversity. We want to raise funds to put a range of these books in your child’s classroom where they will be accessible to everyone.
Between now and December 20 there are three ways to give the gift of reading:
1. Come to the Another Story book fair at Fern Ave Public School during parent-teacher interviews to purchase books directly for your child's classroom from the Another Story list. Thursday, November 14th 3:30pm – 8 pm and Friday November 15th 9am – 12pm
2. You should have received a notification through School Cash Online for an optional $10 item purchase (listed under your child's name). Click the link, and these funds will go to purchase books from the Another Story list.
3. If you wish to make a larger donation, please go through School Cash Online, select "Make a Donation," click "Fund Destination" to find Fern Ave. Junior and Senior Public School. In the message box, please earmark your donation "BOOKS." Donors of $25 or more will automatically receive a tax receipt. We will use these funds to purchase books from the Another Story list.
Thank you for giving your kids the gift of reading!
