Day two for cluster three added more fun and excitement as the students toured the Library Book Mobile and introduced to the Library computer lab. For many students, touching a computer for the first time brings pure excitement, each new skill, like creating a PowerPoint slide, feels like unlocking a world of possibilities. The students discovered the basics of computers with wide eyed enthusiasm as if uncovering hidden treasures.
These students have shown remarkable skill, mastering the essentials of PowerPoint in just half a day and preparing to present on the sites they will tour the following day. Their presentations will focus on historical sites and the importance of safeguarding them, as these places are vital to keeping our cultural heritage alive, for in protecting these places we ensure that our cultural heritage continues to live and inspire future generations.
Alongside learning PowerPoint skills, the students also take part in Story Hour. In past years, we simply selected random books from the Library’s collection to read aloud. This year, however, is different. We are sharing local legends and ancestral stories passed down through generations, narratives that connect us to our roots. We believe that by knowing their own legends, students will strengthen their bond with the past and deepen their appreciation of our cultural heritage.
The students were also given an assignment to write about how they believe having a bookmobile service at their school would benefit both themselves and the wider community. They will present their reflections on the final day of the program.
With heartfelt gratitude, we honor the volunteers whose dedication made this year’s Summer Reading Program possible.
