Do you have books your children no longer read? Would you like those books to go to children from disadvantaged families?
Spyns is collecting quality pre-loved children’s books to distribute to disadvantaged families. Research shows that having a variety of books at home increases reading skills, school-readiness & imagination.
It’s easy to help a child learn to love books - Spyns works with disadvantaged families in the Penrith area on early literacy, school-readiness, and parenting. We’ll give your pre-loved books a whole new life. We need books for any age from baby books to early teens. New kids books are also greatly appreciated.
Please drop off books at the following Centres:
- Cranebrook Neighbourhood Centre, Hosking St Ph: 4729 0442
- South Penrith Neighbourhood Centre, Crn Trent and Birmingham Rd Ph: 4721 8520
- Glenmore Park Youth Centre, Luttrell St Ph: 4733 1499
