Leigh Anne and her team prepared and presented certificates for her Grade 3 leavers last week. The joy and pride was infectious! Looking at these girls, whom I had the pleasure to get to know last year, brings me great joy. Some of them were extremely weak and lacked courage last year, and the change in not only their ability, but their confidence, is highly apparent. They have been given to key to success: the tools to access the curriculum, and the knowledge that they are special, and that someone has cared enough to visit them on a weekly basis to ensure their success. This is the power that all our volunteers have; to help unleash hidden talents and abilities, as well as help to build self esteem.
