UPDATE: NEW DATE Annual Used Book Sale: WEDNESDAY, May 6th - We need your books!

Briargreen Public School Needs Your Help! The school is holding our Annual Used Book Sale and we need your help to make it our best one yet!

There are two ways you can help:

1.  Go through your bookshelves and donate any gently used books (children's and adults') to the school.  You can drop them off at the school (go to the main office and there's a table set up for book donations).  No textbooks or magazines please.  Books can be dropped off during school hours up until May 6th.

2.  Come to the sale!  The Used Book Sale is open to the public on Wednesday, May 6th from 4 - 7:00 pm.  All proceeds from the sale support the amazing students at Briargreen PS.

Briargreen Rink Closed

The Briargreen rink is officially closed for the season. Thank you for all your help. It is greatly appreciated by the entire community. Without volunteers, there would not be a rink. If the rink freezes again, go ahead and enjoy a skate, but please make sure everything is locked up when you leave and the nets are off the ice. I don't want the nets to get frozen in. It doesn't look like the conditions are going to be suitable for much more rink maintenance.  Enjoy!
