St. Aidan Holds Annual Book Fair

The annual St. Aidan’s Book Fair at Barnes & Noble was another fruitful and fun-filled event! The fundraising event for St. Aidan School occurred on June 13th at the Carle Place store. Many students and their families were eager to purchase their summer reading books as well as many gift items on their lists.

Upon arriving at the book fair, students received St Aidan Gym Passes (in exchange for wearing uniforms on a given day) as a token of appreciation. Many of the younger children had fun creating their own bookmarks, and brandishing their new temporary tattoos while the older students and parents sipped on Starbucks Frappuccinos and delighted in the cafes cookies and croissants.

Mrs. Serrano, our St. Aidan librarian, also enjoyed her morning and chatted with parents as she purchased new books for the school library.

WNBC’s on-air reporter, Ida Siegal, read passages from her new children’s book “Emma Is On the Air: Big News!” and autographed copies for the crowd.

A special thanks to Mrs. Reagan Stone and to the Angel Choir who sang beautifully and entertained the many smiling shoppers!
