Reading aloud is a wonderful way to spark a lifelong love of books and storytelling in children. This program invites kids aged 6-10 to join a cozy group setting where they can listen to and discuss popular children's fiction and picture books. It's a gentle, engaging activity designed to improve comprehension, vocabulary, fluency, and expressive reading skills.
Each session is a chance for your child to develop confidence in storytelling while having fun with peers. The relaxed atmosphere encourages participation and sharing thoughts about the stories read aloud.
The Read Aloud Corner runs every Wednesday during the school term, from 4:00pm to 5:00pm, allowing families to plan after-school activities easily. Each session includes a 10-minute arrival and pack-up time within the hour.
Registration is required, with a limit of one registration per day for multi-session programs. Guardians must remain on-site for children under 12, ensuring a safe and supportive environment.
