            An example of “one of the wonderful things happening within the Good Spirit Teacher Association Equity Committee” is a program called Books for Babies, says the committee chairperson Robin Heshka of Canora, who teaches at Columbia School in Yorkton.

            Every year the Good Spirit Teacher Association Equity Committee and Good Spirit School Division are partners for this program, she said.

            “This is where we purchase a new book for every baby born in the Sunrise Health Region – That equals around 600 books!”

            The book title purchased this year is Read Me a Book by Barbara Reid, said Heshka. The Good Spirit Teacher Association Equity Committee enlists a few student helpers to place stickers on and deliver all 600 books to the Sunrise Public Health offices.
