Gelukkig NieuwJaar Antwerp!
Amanda and Casi were delighted to put the new year off to a flying start by running The Reader Organisation's first Read to Lead course in Antwerp.
Coordinated by the city council, the course brought together a group of thirteen local librarians, youth workers, educationalists and volunteers to learn how to establish and lead shared reading groups, inspired by the success of Get Into Reading. We're hoping that this will be the beginning of a fruitful partnership with both the city and the wider region of Flanders.
Inne Peeteks, who attended the course, had this to say:
The best (thing) about Read to Lead? Everything. I’m inspired, motivated and amazed by the methodology of shared reading.
Read to Lead is The Reader Organisation's revolutionary training course which exists to cultivate the practice of shared reading, equipping attendees with the skills and understanding to become a shared reading facilitator. We deliver the course both within organisations and through open courses across the UK and beyond.
