If your child needs help with their reading, sign up for Read With Me, Wyndham City Libraries' reading buddy program.
What is Read With Me?
Read With Me is a program where primary school aged children can practise their reading. During each session our Education Librarians will guide your child's reading and recommend new authors and books for them to try.
Please note, this is not a tutoring program.
Who can attend?
- Children aged 6 - 12 years, or
- Children in Grade Prep - Year 6
How does it work?
There are two options to participate in this program:
* Online, weekly, and
* in person at Hoppers Crossing Library, once a month (this replaces Werribee for Term 4)
Read with Me in person at Hoppers Crossing, requires you to attend in person at our Pacific Werribee branch in Hoppers Crossing.
Read With Me Online is run online using MS Teams.
You will automatically be sent a MS Teams meeting link when you book into a session. You will receive a new link for each session you book into.
Please note: you do not have to have a MS Teams account to access this program
