Dictionaries to Schools A morning well spent! What a rewarding project Graham has organised and such a pleasure to drive to first Lee Stream School where we presented seven dictionaries to the very grateful students who were wondering if they would be getting theirs. Then on to Middlemarch and the StrathTaieri primary school. First to be welcomed by the Principal Emma Barker who some years ago was a RYE student to Canada sponsored by the Mosgiel Rotary Club, and a Rotarian in the Waimate Club before moving to Middlemarch. Then to be so welcome in the classroom of young girls and boys six of them in year four (standard two?) waiting to receive a dictionary of their very own.(see photo) What a pleasure it is to experience how grateful the children and teachers are, and be assured that the books are valued and get plenty of use. We also have to thank Margie for so beautifully printing the children names in all the books. |
