Sculptures, Indians and Elections

There are so many things going on this week in the library I almost can't find a minute to sit down ... except to give you an update.

Mrs Gandey's Level 2 class made sculptures of clay that she put in our glass display case. The theme is "Storytellers" and they are worth the detour. They are colorful, very imaginative and unique. We are lucky to see such beautiful art at Galt.


You can also admire life size amerindians from different tribes on banners all around the main circulation area. Mrs. Lord's and Mr. Poulin's classes are responsible for this great display. They really worked hard at making it look as close to the real thing as possible. You can see fur, feathers, braids, clothes, etc.

With the elections coming in May, we had the chance to have our own voting booth provided by Elections Canada so we decided to have an election of our own. Last year, we had a little debate on whether you feel like a pancake or a couch potato. Are you more chocolate or chips and salty snacks? Do we have to flip you over to make you move or roll you down? We will prepare posters to explain your choices and we will go voting. It will be fun ... without pain ... without any gains ... So, no excuse not to participate.

Oh! I almost forgot! We received a thank you note from the T.W.L.O.H.A. Foundation for our participation in raising awareness about suicide, depression and self-mutilation. Thanks again to all students who did write LOVE on their arms ... it makes a difference.
