eagerly checking out the new books. As in the past year,
teacher Hammond and the students make a list of the books
they would like. With funds raised at activities such
as our Oktoberfest, Lionesses Jean W and Jean C purchase
the books for the school.

This
is the start of another year for the Sooke District Lioness
working with Ed West Teacher Hammond D. Hammond lets us
know what the students need in the way of books and other
resources, and do our best to supply him with those items.

Teacher,
Hammond D. and one of the Ed West students receiving the
books in the colorful Santa Sacks and world globe from
Lionesses Jean C and Jean W. The globe is about 40 years
old and we hope the students will find the changes that
have occurred to countries around the world interesting.

in mind.

A
new project for Sooke District Lioness - Ed West Alternative High School downstairs
at the Worklink Employment Society. The school is for teens who haven't benefitted
from the regular school system. Teacher Hammond Domenicelli chose books based
on his students interests and on Feb. 5th, members of the Sooke District Lioness
Club visited the school to present the books and learn about this very important
school. The presentation was done by Lioness Anne
S., founding member of the original Sooke Lioness Club, whose grandson is a student
at the school. Lionesses Jean W and Jean C learned about this school and were
responsible for bringing this project to the attention of our Club.
