Reading aloud is a wonderful way to spark a lifelong love of books in children. This program encourages young readers to develop their storytelling skills by improving comprehension, vocabulary, fluency, and expression. Each session features popular children’s fiction and picture books, creating a cozy and interactive environment.
The sessions are designed for children aged 6 to 10 years and run during the school term on Wednesdays from 4:00pm to 5:00pm. Parents and guardians can expect a nurturing space where their children can engage with stories and participate in discussions.
This is a perfect activity for parents looking to support their children's literacy development in a fun and social setting.
The Read Aloud Corner sessions include a 10-minute arrival and 10-minute pack-up time within the one-hour duration. Registration is required, and each participant can only register for one session per day.
Guardians of children under 12 must remain on-site during the program, and all guardians must be at least 16 years old. The program facilitators maintain a respectful and positive environment, and inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated.
Photography may occur during sessions for promotional purposes; attendees can notify staff if they do not consent to being photographed.
