Our students and staff called into Kahns Books on James Street this week to say a personal thank you to Kahn and Valerie as the shop prepares to close its doors.
We wanted to show our appreciation in person for the many ways Kahns has supported CBC students, staff and families over the years. The students presented flowers and best wishes on behalf of the school community.
For many of our students, Kahns is more than just a bookshop. Some have memories of buying their first novel there, choosing a prize book or visiting with their parents to get their school books. We invited the boys to share some of these memories and it was lovely to hear the personal connections they have with the shop.
We also encouraged the students to browse the shelves, choose a book where possible and, most importantly, take the opportunity to thank the staff themselves.
After 32 years as part of the Kilkenny and CBC community, Kahns has left a lasting mark on generations of our students, staff and families, and we are grateful for the memories, kindness and support over the years.
