Library Volunteers Needed!

Our fabulous librarian Mrs. Roberts is looking for volunteer parents / family members to help her in the library shelving books. If anyone has time during the day or knows another parent at Nelson who might like to help out, please let myself or Mrs. Roberts know! Even 1/2 an hour helps a lot!! Any amount of time is helpful & would be very much appreciated by Mrs. Roberts.
Thanks so much! Mrs. James 🙂
