 Schools across Yorkton and area, including Dr. Brass and St. Pauls (pictured) were reading Slacker by Gordon Korman. Students celebrated the end of the book by taking part in literacy day events, which involved fun and games themed around the book, with video games and beavers being the basis for scavenger hunts, crafts and other activities. The book was part of the annual One Community One Book event, which encourages families to read together by picking a family friendly novel for them to enjoy.
School families in St. Paul’s, Columbia, Yorkdale, Dr. Brass, MC Knoll, St. Michael’s and Invermay Schools will be taking part in the program, with 1,100 families taking part overall.
