Macmillan Education celebrates World Read Aloud Day
World Read Aloud Day is celebrated on the first Wednesday of February, and this year it was celebrated on 1 February.
This day is dedicated to reading, specifically to the art and practice of reading aloud. It also highlights the importance of sharing stories. People were encouraged to grab a book and read it aloud to an audience.
The Macmillan Sales & Marketing teams took up this challenge and read stories all over the country at ECD centres, schools and children’s wards at hospitals. Listening to stories helped these sick children forget their pain and sorrows for a while.
In Mpumalanga, stories were read to grannies at an old age home. They were reminded of their important role in telling their grandchildren folktales and stories about their families.
