Parcels of books from Schools all around the UK are arriving in Bali to support reading and create the love of reading within schools. Each book is sent by a student with a picture of them inside and some personal details to ensure the recipient feels the book is personal and gives them some insight from where it came.
David Ward set up the project through LinkedIn with an English teacher called Beatrix (FiFi) in Bali, “Our Christmas has come true, such wonderful presents for our students, we are so happy and grateful for the support of Mr Ward and other schools, god bless”.
‘Book Pal’, It’s simple to do, link with a school overseas, send a photograph within of the person sending the book with a few details of themselves and post to the school. The response is so positive and encourages students to read.
