Welcome to the Blue Spruce section of this site!
The Blue Spruce program will begin for our students in kindergarten to grade 3 in March. It is a province-wide program that gets students all across Ontario excited about books and reading. The students' favourite book will be awarded the Blue Spruce award during a special ceremony in May.
Teachers, along with Ms. Kondo, will read the ten nominated books to the primary classes. All students will get to rate each books and complete short activities in their special Blue Spruce Passport.
Then, in April, students will vote for their favourite title. After that, we wait to see if the rest of Ontario had the same favourite book. It's super exciting and the students really have a fun time with the whole process.
If you really can't wait until March to see the nominated titles, you can read about them here:
