Consultation has concluded

Something very eggciting is happening in Murray Bridge!

Paint The Bridge REaD program is here.

Paint the Town REaD is a nationwide early literacy community program that encourages the whole community to read, talk, sing and play with children from birth, to help develop the skills they will need for reading and writing.

The program will features a VERY special egg, which will grow as it is nurtured with plenty of reading, rhyming and singing. The egg is visiting local kindergartens, childcare centres and community events and once it grows to its full size, a mystery mascot will emerge at a Reading Day event early 2023.

The program will then have a very special mascot and we want you to decide what it should be.

Please vote below by 25 November

The Paint the Bridge REaD project brings together the Rural City of Murray Bridge, Murray Bridge Library, the Tinyeri Children’s Centre DHS Safer Family Services, Murray Bridge Community Centre and ac.care Communities for Children Murraylands to encourage literacy in the community.

For information about the program, contact Lee Prestwood, Community Safety, Wellbeing and Inclusion Officer at L.Prestwood@murraybridge.sa.gov.au, or visit the Paint the Town REaD website www.paintthetownread.info
