TD Summer Reading Club starts July 2!

TD Summer Reading Club Is Here!:  
Calling all kids to the TD Summer Reading Club for school-aged kids (sponsored by the TD Financial Group)!  This summer’s Club is all about “Play” – and what could be more fun than that?!  

Join and get a ticket for our summer prize draws for each book you read!  The TD Summer Reading Club can be done as an independent reading program - or join our group for Thursday afternoon activities. 

We have 2 groups meeting on Thurs. afternoons (starting July 2):  
  • K - Gr 3 kids from 2:00 to 3:00, 
  • and then Gr 4 & up from 3:00 until 4:00(ish).  
Activities will include: a Brenda Carter Memorial Art Workshop for Kids, a drumming workshop with Jordan Rannells (Creative Sound Productions), science fun, playing mini-golf and other games, making stuff to play with (puppets, superhero costumes & more), and our older group will perform a play.

Parents:  Summer reading programs have been shown to prevent “brain drain” by keeping up literacy skills over the summer - they encourage kids to read for pleasure and develop the reading habit.
