Final call to donate a book! A huge THANK YOU to all those who have contributed to the Rotary Club of Berwick’s “Book Drive” during the Basic Literacy and Education month in September. Members and friends will have a final opportunity to donate books suitable for infants through to primary school aged children at the next week’s Club meeting (Wednesday 4th October). All the books will be donated to kids in our local community who might have never had the opportunity of owning their own book. If you’d like to donate there’s no need for expense – a $5.00 book from the newsagent or supermarket is fine! Literacy and education is a key factor to overcoming poverty and all that goes with it. Reading is the heart beat of basic education equipping children with skills for life and further learning. So this is our final call for donations! A basket for collection will be at the attendance desk on Wednesday night, or see Jen or Jane. |
