Paired Reading

Many Thanks to all those parents who made the effort to come along to Monday night’s meeting with Ann Marie Flynn. We are very lucky to have the chance to call on someone like Ann-Marie who has great experience in the whole area of developing literacy skills in children. The Paired Reading program began Wednesday and any parent who has a child in Primary 3,4,5,6 or 7 and was unable to attend the meeting should contact your child’s teacher and they will be able to assist you in involving your child in this very worthwhile activity.
