President David Riley and pupils on Nonsuch Primary School
Nonsuch Rotary is supporting a larger Rotary RIBI (Rotary International in Great Britain & Ireland) as part of Rotary’s Literacy Programme. In partnership with Usborne Publishing, RIBI is distributing Usborne’s Dictionary 4 Life to primary school pupils just before they move on to senior school.
This 288 page illustrated dictionary contains 20,000 definitions, 10,000 entries and 1,000 illustrations. It is printed in full colour and acts as a great reference book for all children approaching senior school. As the title suggests, the objective is for the pupils to keep and use the dictionary for life.
Nonsuch Rotary will be distributing 200 of these dictionaries to local schools and the photograph shows President David Riley presenting the first consignment to pupils of Nonsuch Primary School. Other local schools to be supported include Dorchester, and Westbourne Primary Schools. Other Rotary clubs in the area will be supporting other schools in the area.
