Thank you to all our Birthday Book Club friends who participated this year. As you can see, having a birthday can be a
great thing when you celebrate it with good friends! The children enjoyed cookies and ice cream and special balloons and
blow pop suckers. Each one of our Birthday Book Club students have helped provide a great book to make our library a
fascinating place to find books about most any subject! Below is a look back at those who participated this school
year. Our January and March birthdays are not here though. I apologize for the missing students as I wasn’t able to get
the students pictures at that time. If you want to become part of this special group, come by the library and see
Mr. McLeod. Happy Reading everyone!
Have a great summer everyone!
Congratulations to everyone that earned the Lunch with Mr. McLeod reward. The students earned a lunch with
Mr. McLeod by reading over half the books that were on the Sunshine State Young Readers Award book
list for third through fifth grade. Each of the students received a lunch meal from the Fourth Street Chick Fil-A,
their SSYRA book, a Chick Fil-A and Panera Bread gift certificate and a free book card to the upcoming book
fair. Congratulations to all the students and their reading efforts!

New East Wing Dedication
New life comes to the former funeral home. Our new East Wing was dedicated on November 17, 2006. Dr. Palmer, Robert Barcley, P.A. and Pastor Tim Suddreth of Suncoast Cathedral prayed blessings over the new classrooms and the students and families that will be using them in coming years. Kindergarten students who attend classes in the East Wing serenaded the crowd to celebrate the dedication.
Finance Park
The 8th grade went to Finance Park at the Gus A. Starvos Institute where they practiced how to balance a budget by paying bills, buying a car and a house, and taking their family out to Outback.
A fun time was had by all.
Sea Camp 2006
The seventh grade study of Life Science took on new meaning when the class traveled to Sea Camp in the Florida Keys. The four day adventure held snorkeling, a study of aquatic life, an evening water exploration and much more!
Second Graders visit Lowry Park Zoo
The sixth grade class had a great time at the Ropes Course. This two day field trip gave them an opportunity to spend valuable time together. St. Pete Christian is very proud of the way our sixth graders conducted themselves. Great job sixth graders!
