What We Do

Literacy transcends the ability to read and write. Literacy is how we interact with and make sense of the world around us. 

From creative expression, to connecting with Culture and community, and navigating our identity and place in the world, literacy drives us to explore, to discover, to learn and to share, shaping our stories and experiences, and how we tell them.
