KFFL Workshop

Jan 2017

KFFL, KPMG Family For Literacy, volunteers had a wonderful hands on session with our students.

They helped our children enjoy the library! :-)

Our loving thanks to KFFL Volunteers as always. KFFL volunteers regularly work with our children to help them love reading, enjoying and comprehending story books. When a child loves to read and understand by himself, it will be easier for the child to read and understand text books by himself.

KFFL is doing a great job towards our students literacy. 

The Library initiative is called the "Hippocampus". All the children are checked for their reading and comprehension skills regularly and are helped along to higher levels by the volunteers.
