Read for Life: early childhood literacy symposium
This event is now in the past.
Jay Laga’aia and Dr Susan Krieg, our special guests for the day, will discuss the value of developing literacy skills for children, demonstrating how to engage children, their parents and the local community in building literacy based experiences to support children’s social development and the development of individual literacy skills.
Join us and participate in a day of discussion, thinking and skills based workshops promoting the importance of reading and literacy for children.
