Literacy Matters! credo

I can read, therefore I am.

I can:

  • be smart and become smarter;
  • communicate with others;
  • solve problems, understand and connect with new challenges;
  • participate in family, workplace and community life;
  • use a range of technologies;
  • think for myself and with others;
  • keep my culture alive;
  • share with others;
  • be creative and laugh.

I have the world and beyond at my feet.

I can read, therefore I am empowered and can learn lifelong.

I can read, therefore I am part of the present and the future.

I can read, therefore I am,

Because …….. LITERACY MATTERS!
