Leaving Library Happy
Finding My Happy Book
Library Selfies Are Allowed
Welcome to the re-opening of the Fairmeadows Library
Hello Panthers, I am Dr. Sonja Stewart your new librarian. I've been an educator for 32 years. I spent 20+ years in school libraries. I am excited about reopening the library after a whole school year of Fairmeadows not having a library program. Thank goodness that when I arrived, there were eight big boxes of brand new books awaiting me to debut. I've been introducing those books to students who soaked them right up. I must admit we've had a ball together the last couple of weeks. All around it's going to be a very productive library program this year. See you @theFairmeadowsLibrary.

Makerspace News
You can expect a bigger, better Makerspace library program to happen over the course of the school year. The new robotics are already piling in (see the photo below). We can't wait to get more for our Fairmeadows Panthers. We hope to make use of the new laptop and devices each student will soon be provided. With this new opportunity we are going to be coding, coding, coding.
