Literacy Day 2019
EastSide Learning proudly hosted its annual Family Fun Literacy Day on Friday 23rd August.
On a sun-kissed C.S. Lewis Square we welcomed families and community groups from across East Belfast, to enjoy a range of fun and free educational activities aimed at promoting reading and storytelling. We had a wealth of activities, including:
- Storytelling and poetry workshops with award-winning author Myra Zepf
- iPad animation classes with Nerve Centre
- Music-making with iPad workshops with Ossia Music School
- Drama workshops
- Story Cubes
- Arts & crafts
The Literacy Day also featured our famous Giving Library, in which children and their families are free to take home books that have been kindly donated by people across East Belfast. We are consistently overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity of those who answer our calls for donations. Thank you so much if you donated!
Huge thanks to our volunteers, to Belfast City Council, Connswater Community Greenway and all the facilitators who provided such fun and engaging workshops throughout the day.
