This program will run through July & August, and is for children ages 7 to 10, at Almonte & Pakenham branches.
Each child registers for a 4-week period, at one hour/week.
The purpose of this program is to help children gain confidence in their reading ability, instill a love of reading, and lessen summer learning loss. Supervised by library staff, each child is matched with an adult volunteer. The buddies meet at the library for one hour each week, initially for 4 weeks, but the program can be extended beyond, if the child and volunteer are interested. Due to limited enrolment, we require parents to commit for the initial 4-week period. Register here https://form.jotform.com/240505693922256
