Quality Storytents 2018: Anglin Drive


We were pleased to offer storytents on Anglin Drive again this year.  Tents ran for an hour and a half on Tuesdays over a six week period.  Twenty-five children - with attendance ranging from 6 to 18 children per session - recorded a total of 260 books read.  Many of these children were already patrons of the small community library in the the Anglin Drive Tenant's Association building, and we will be keeping the this library open throughout the fall and winter as part of our ongoing partnership with the Association.

Additional support and partnering for this project came from the City of Saint John, the New Brunswick Department of Social Development, and the Saint John Free Public Library.
