Elmdale BookFest 2024 – February 23-24

Elmdale Public School is excited to announce the return of our beloved annual BookFest fundraiser, a tradition cherished by our community for over 50 years! BookFest is not just an event; it’s a celebration of literacy and community spirit.

Last year, thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we raised over $23,000 and gathered a whopping 40,000 books! These contributions directly support the many enriching activities and programs here at Elmdale.

We warmly invite you to be part of this wonderful tradition by donating books at Elmdale Public School (49 Iona St, Ottawa) or via the Java Street entrance until February 15th.

Save the dates: February 23rd (9am-9pm) and February 24th (9am-4pm) for our BookFest sale, held in the Elmdale gymnasium! Dive into a treasure trove of books priced between $1 and $3. It’s an opportunity not to be missed for book lovers and bargain hunters alike.

Let’s come together as a community to celebrate the joy of reading and support our school. We can’t wait to see you at BookFest!
