Good Afternoon!
I'll never really know how many people are reading this blog--but I will assume it is in the 100s of interested parents, students, staff and local residents!
This morning Melanie and I met with Katie from The Doorstep Library. This is a new charity in the Hammersmith Fulham area--and whilst their charity number may be new, their programme has been up and running for over 3 years.
In a nutshell, they bring the fantastic world of books to children! Through their fantastic group of volunteers, they have reached children with their storytelling. They quite literally, bring books to the child's doorstep.
We are hopeful that we can find many ways to collaborate over the years. Our first meeting provided an opportunity for us to learn about one another, brainstorm and share contact information--creating links within our respective circles can lead to many dynamic opportunities.
Melanie and I are quite hopeful that our first endeavour will be great for the students of Avonmore; The Doorstep Library will host a "Storytime Tent" at our annual summer fair. This will provide a wonderful space for children and parents to sit and explore the world through words. It will also help to get the word out about The Doorstep Library and their wonderful works.
As always, we'll keep you posted!
