HABSR is proud to introduce our latest project of
Active Readers.
This project aims to encourage and bring about awareness of reading by exploring and developing talents in children through storytelling, art, drama, poetry, music and dance.
We are running a library were we can make story books and educational toys available to the HABSR's ECD centers and Safe Parks.
We would like to invite experts to share their knowledge in the ECD Centres and Safe Parks.
The library will visit projects and present different methods of making reading fun through drama, poetry, art, dance, storytelling and music. As well as doing readings and storytelling sessions with the children.
