06 September - Human Rights - SACEE reading project looking for volunteers

In today’s show, we spoke to Delia Scott – Volunteer at the South African Council for English Education. SACEE aims to maintain, promote and encourage education through the English medium and to improve the standards of written and spoken English in South Africa. SACEE has started a reading project for children in Grades 3 and 6 in a few of the schools in disadvantaged areas and they are looking for volunteers to read to the children. They are appealing to people to give up an hour or so on Wednesday mornings to help. No previous training is needed but a love of reading and children will help. Anyone interested can contact Delia on 072 342 0755 or send an email to bodger2@mweb.co.za
