Valley Farm P.S.

Valley Farm Public school is a vibrant school in Pickering Ontario.

Our school library is an active hub of our school.  Daily, most of our 600 plus students visit our school library.  Our library is transforming into a Learning Commons.  This transormation requires our library to have a new desgin both physically and virtually.

We have had a few renovations over the last few years, but we need more.  Our school was built in 1989 and opened with 13 portables.  We are a very well used building and our library reflects this.  Unfortunately our shelving is in bad shape.  It is cracked, dirty and pieced together with chunks of older units.  Our walls need a coat of paint.  Our lighting is dim and our furniture is dirty and hard to move around to reflect our library learning commons curriculum.  We don't even have enough chairs for our students.  We love our library but, know it needs a makeover!

If we are to win, we will update our space so that our students truly are learning in an up to date library learning commons that reflects just how amazing Valley Farm PS truly is.
