Reading across the World

Starting on Friday, January 27th, 2023 to Friday, February 10th, 2023, the students at l'École Qayqayt Elementary School will start a virtual, cross-global road trip via an innovative program from Mind Growth Education to complete their reading challenge.

Their daily reading sessions will take them on a storybook adventure across this great planet, building more reading skills while exposing them to all sorts of fun and educational facts about the World.

Will they be able to complete the challenge by February 10th, 2023? Stay tuned to find out!

Fun facts!

After completing this Read-A-Thon Fundraiser, participants will have had over 200-1,000 additional minutes of reading and will have planted real trees in Canada in the process!

GREAT NEWS! We’ve partnered with One Tree Planted #onetreeplanted . One Tree Planted will plant a tree for every 25% of the reading challenge a class completes along their "Read Across the World" reading adventure route. There’s no extra work or cost for the student/families — Just make sure you keep reading! #greatthingshappenwhenyouread

How will the funds be used?

85% of the net funds raised by this Read-A-Thon Fundraiser will help fund classroom subsidies (most often used for field trips or special educators).  The remaining 15% goes towards Mind Growth Education to help cover costs such as subscription cost, administrative fee + the Paypal or Stripe payment processing fees and transaction costs.

Friends and family - Let's show we are a community that cares about this school!
