Welcome to the New Library Webpage
The Emma King Library is a great place to sign out a book and be inspired. The library offers space for students to come and learn about new things, hear a story and use technology. There are several computers for students to use and a Smart Board to help engage student learning.
Battle of the Books Club
The Battle of the Books team worked hard since October to get ready for the competition that was held on May 1. The team consisted of 12 amazing students from grades 4-8. The students on the team read as many books as they could from the official list put out by the Barrie Public Library. Our team placed 3rd out of 5 schools on that day.
