New Literacy Kits!

Summer Burton • April 11, 2022

Literacy skills can be built at any age or stage in life - a true example of the power in the phrase "lifelong learning."


Literacy Link South Central is a proud member of the Elgin Children’s Network's Literacy Committee, supporting early literacy initiatives across the county. As part of network's recent Celebration of Literacy, we have put together Literacy Kits which will be distributed to before and after school programs across Elgin County.


Literacy has many shapes and forms and all of them are important. That's why these Kits support literacy in its many guises – reading, writing, digital, physical, financial, oral and cultural. Included in the kits are games, craft supplies, books, along with a colouring book and a guide to fun physical activities created by two TVDSB high school classes.


We send big thanks to the donors who helped fund this project:

  • St. Thomas Kinsmen 
  • St. Thomas Lions 
  • Rodney Kiwanis 
  • West Lorne Kiwanis 
  • West Lorne Optimist
  • Municipality of Dutton Dunwich
