Toolboxes - Reading Materials and Activities

A Toolbox is a specifically designed chest filled with enough reading material and fun activities for ten workshops of 25 kids in an eleven-week term. A single child can attend as many workshops as he/she likes. Toolboxes consist of carefully selected books, games and activities to fit one of the three main themes: Books & Stories, Green, and Time. During a workshop, the children will listen to stories, write their own stories, read on their own, play a reading based board game and enjoy research, crafts and activities all centred around the Toolbox’s theme.

30 sessions will be conducted and an estimated 150 children will be reached by each presenter per term.
