A thank you to the special ladies from The Grange

Regular practice is a key factor in reading success, but where do the teachers find the time to listen to each student read individually? In 2011 we have been fortunate to have seven residents of The Grange Village, Waitara, who have generously given their time to come to Mt Colah and listen to children read. Each of the ladies is assigned a list of students from a junior class and every week they hear these children read aloud. The students look forward to having their special time of individual attention, and the helpers from the Grange enjoy getting to know each child and seeing how they progress throughout the year. To express our thanks for all the help they have given this year, Mrs Bull, Mrs Udy and the students hosted a party for our Grange helpers.
