Reading Festival at Uitenhage Drostdy Museum | 13th of August
Recently, our Read and Rise learners attended a Reading Festival! The Reading Festival encouraged people to come and donate books so they could be reused. The day was filled with a variety of activities suitable for different age groups. The younger children participated in arts and crafts, a short dance session, where they learned a fun new song, while the older children had the opportunity to solve mysteries.
The children also witnessed two visually impaired individuals reading Braille and listened to learners from other schools reading their own poems. In addition, they enjoyed short reading sessions presented by book authors, as well as a fun play performed by some of the students. The children got the opportunity to experience reading in a completely different and exciting way!
