PROJECTS
Summer Reading Programme
Summer Reading Programme (SRP) is our flagship project. It is a collection of free public library readings and activity sessions that take place every Saturday in August. The community is invited to come out to various library branches to experience creative, fun-filled reading, activity and art segments that are planned around a theme for the summer. Faces light up with a glow of "Wow, I have learnt something today!”
This is the revamped Homework Helper programme which pairs volunteers with weak or under-performing students who attend a Primary school. Persons who are interested in teaching, or simply have a passion for children can let us know.
Community Drives
Community Drives are how we keep our ears to the ground, gather information and build relationships. These fun-filled face-to-face conversations enable us to listen to what residents have to say and help inform future projects.
Other Initiatives
We now include virtual reading groups and look forward to offering other projects to connect us across country borders.
