There are 280 books outstanding for this age category valued at more than R30 000. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur fine-free weeks have shown good results in the past,\u201d said Mayco member for Community Services and Health Patricia van der Ross, \u201cand we are hoping for similar outcomes this time around. I encourage our young people to exploit this opportunity and return those books that they have forgotten about, with no fines payable in this period. I also want to encourage learners to please return any study guides or materials that they used during the exams, so that we can start the new year with everything back where it belongs, and accessible to other patrons.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For the love of reading <\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Eco-warrior Reading Programme is a collaboration among City Libraries, Urban Waste Management, Nal\u2019ibali and Read to Rise for children aged 9 to 13. The programme started on Tuesday 17 December and runs until Friday 31 January 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It aims to promote environmental awareness, encourage reading and foster a love for nature, while also addressing the so-called \u201csummer reading slump\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Research shows children can lose between two and three months of reading progress during the holiday periods, primarily due to the lack of engagement with books and other reading material. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reading programme will address climate change in several ways by offering the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Environmental education \u2013 reading of short stories that highlight eco-conscious themes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Exciting activities \u2013 crafts that encourage eco-friendly habits and address causes and effects linked to climate change.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Climate action \u2013 the programme inspires learners to take action in their communities by making conscious choices in their daily lives through the various eco-challenges.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creativity \u2013 learn to turn trash into treasure through creative recycling activities<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fun while learning \u2013 meet the awesome Mascots LiBee, Bingo and Oaky who will guide participants on their eco-journey in the activity booklet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Children who participate in the programme will receive an activity booklet, which will serve as their guide throughout the programme. Participants can collect the activity booklet at their local library and do the fun activities at home or they can participate at the library. On completing the booklet participants stand a chance to win a super-cool goodie bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Eco-Warrior Reading Programme is a unique initiative that combines reading, environmental education and climate action,\u201d added Van der Ross. \u201cThis programme will motivate young people to read and learn; reading also improves writing skills. We would like to encourage our young people to visit the nearest library and get involved, so that they can reap the benefits in the future.\u201d
