Help Catholic Institute Of Education by Donating books for classroom libraries for Foundation phase to grade 7
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
We have a poor reading culture in South Africa. Many children have no books at home, schools have no libraries and classrooms do not have classroom book corners. Children are not read to. We want children to learn to read, yet they do not have books. Children need to be able to choose books, handle books and love them. By donating books that can be used for classroom libraries in under-resourced schools you will be helping a child to read, grow cognitively and to enjoy that other reality that stories provide.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
