Community Literacy Event Dec. 2011

Community Literacy Night
Nov. 27-Dec.2
A very successful Community Literacy Night was held in Belmopan to increase awareness of Rotary Literacy Alive project, to celebrate the work of the schools, the teachers, and the parent community leaders in the work done to support literacy. Well over 400 community members participating in the community run event. There were 14 centres in classrooms featuring literacy activities and delicious papusas, empanadas and cupcakes prepared by some dedicated parents. Teachers came from all six pilot schools and some even ran a centre using their own teaching materials. Teachers from school across the entire Cayo district travelled long distances to get to the event. At the conclusion of the VTT visit, enthusiasm to expand the project and to replicate the community literacy night became priorities for all the pilot schools and for many of the non pilot schools (many who are keen to selected as pilot schools in a future project/program).
