Husband and wife team Keith and Dolores Adriaanse are volunteers at our literacy centre at Florida Primary. Keith had this to say about the programme, "I signed up when invited to do so, without hesitation. Even though I still work (at retirement age), the opportunity to impact young lives could not be passed by. It is sad to "hear" how difficult some of the students find English reading, not to mention grasping it. But, by our combined effort and dedication we CAN make a difference, and help to create a better future for our youth. Pity though that the sessions are only 45 minutes. Longer periods would certainly be more beneficial, but then it would interfere with their regular classes. In the mean time, I'll do what I am able to, to assist these developing young people."
The Link volunteers at Yeoville Community School recently bought marshmallow Easter eggs for all the Gr1, Gr2 and Gr3 children. Each teacher received a pack of Easter eggs for their class to hand out when it suited them. ![]()
The one Gr3 teacher said she wanted to get marshmallow Easter eggs for all the Gr3 children, but was unable to do so. She was grateful to The Link for the Easter eggs. She wanted to do an Easter egg hunt. Her and another Gr3 teacher could now do their hunt with their children. The children were so excited running around the little courtyard in the school grounds looking for their Easter eggs.
Our next online training session will be on the 13th of May. This is for new volunteers, however existing volunteers who would like a refresher are welcome to join. Please contact us to register and receive the zoom link.![]()
