Author visits are not only a wonderful and often exciting change in routine, they also help students see authors as real people. They also benefit students by inspiring creativity, and motivating students in both reading and writing.

As part of the Canadian Children’s Book Centre’s Book week, we were lucky to be selected to have author Kevin Sylvester visit our school, via Zoom, to talk to divisions 1 and 2 about his writing and some of his stories on Friday, May 7th.

We are very thankful to the Canadian Children’s Book Centre for not only selecting us for this opportunity but also subsidizing this visit making it more affordable for us to bring this author visit to our students.

The visit will be first thing in the morning this Friday. Don’t be late to school divisions 1 and 2!
