This summer, a farewell event was held for former Niverville Collegiate teacher Harry McKnight, who had decided to leave Niverville to spend more time with his children.
At that event, donations were made in honour of McKnight’s wife Ruth, who served as the Niverville Elementary School (NES) librarian from 1977 to 2008. According to Sharon Rempel, current library clerk at NES, $235 was received and 26 new books were purchased, including picture books and chapter books.
Rempel wishes to pass on her thanks for everyone who contributed and honoured Ruth in this way.
