National Literacy Trust and Lodge Balgonie Deliver Sensory Books to Fife Children.
A recent visit to Gordon Cottage in Kelty and John Fergus School in Glenrothes marked a meaningful contribution to local literacy efforts, as a selection of sensory books was presented to support children’s learning and engagement.
The visit was carried out by Brother Colin Davie alongside National Literacy Trust Champion Bro David McNeil, who played a key role in delivering the resources. The books were made possible through a donation from Lodge Balgonie to the National Literacy Trust, following a lecture hosted at the Lodge.
Bro David McNeil was commended for his ongoing dedication to promoting literacy within the community, as part of the Grand Lodge of Scotland’s wider initiative.
Staff at both locations warmly welcomed the donation. Nicki and Jade of Gordon Cottage expressed their gratitude for the thoughtful gift and looked forward to introducing the books to the children. Meanwhile, Pamela Kirkum, Headteacher of John Fergus School, said the new materials would make an excellent addition to the school’s recently established “Book Nook.”
