A huge thank you to the teachers that brought their classes down and/or encouraged students to engage in the student vote.

A shout out to Mr. Burgess and Ms. Huculak for recruiting student volunteers to run the election.  We had a great team of students that volunteered their time to make this happen.

Thank you Times Colonist for the Raise a Reader Grant!

A huge shout out to the Times Colonist for continuing to support our Library/Learning Commons.  This year Royal Bay received a $1900 to continue to build our library collection. Our focus this year is on accessibility.  We will be purchasing books of all reading levels, from local book stores in an attempt to support local small business. From home, we will be getting these books ready to add to our shelves so our students can access them as soon as we are back in the building.
