Plan your PA Day at the library!

Did you know that Friday, June 5 is a PA Day for DSBN and NCDSB elementary schools? It can be hard to fill a whole day with fun activities for the kids. Don’t worry, SCPL has got you covered. Join us for a day of drop-in activities the whole family will love. That’s right – there is no need to register for any of our children's and family programs on June 5! 

Drop-in programs give St. Catharines families flexibility for whatever the PA Day brings. Plus, our drop-in programs are designed to support children of all ages, making them the perfect PA Day activity for families with multiple children of varying ages.
