When I was in grade 11, I took a course called Lifetime Sports. We went running and did square dancing, all the usual, but we also went skating, curled, played raquetball, tennis and golf. The hope was we’d find activities that we’d take with us and maybe learn more about once we finished compulsory physical education. I know you are all really busy with your school work and even finding time to read for enjoyment can be daunting. But if you’re feeling a little blah during this often dark and dreary and busy time, consider taking a little break and learning something completely different – something you just want to learn. It might be a new recipe, baking or cooking something you haven’t tried before, or a craft like origami or knitting. Maybe you like music and want to learn more about a form like jazz. The library has all sorts of resources to help you on your way – books, DVDs, even a few CDs. Check us out.
