Rosny Literacy program
I thought I would share a success story with you from Rosny LINC.
Recent clients have been two young women in the Justice system. They are both working towards participation in Polytechnic courses – in hairdressing and diesel mechanics respectively.
Our tutors have worked hard – combing the Net for numeracy materials to support these young women to achieve their goals. The Polytechnic have supplied materials so the Diesel mechanic student can start on actual course work in advance.
Our tutors were really touched when they visited last week and were presented with hand made cards. The young women shared some poetry they had written – then sang them a song they had written about the waste of the three months in prison and their intention to turn their lives around.
One has been released and we are encouraging her to seek ongoing support from the LINC near her while she does her course. She has given permission to the tutor to link her up with the program up North.
We have every hope of them achieving a brighter future.
