The project beneficiaries include 300 students and 13 teachers. Project deliverables include students' reading records kept in the reading log books, book sharing sessions of the Home Reading Programme, students' video reports developed in the Writing Programme and the storybooks created by students in the Writing Programme which would be used as a resource for the Reading Programme.
The proposed project aims at fostering the moral development of young children, nurturing their positive character building as well as cultivating their reading habits through the use of “narrative approach” in children picture books.
