Read for the World Record at Summer Academy on 8 October 2009



On Thursday 8 October 2009, it was a milestone for some students at Summer Academy. The students participated in a Global Read for the World Record event. What does this mean ? Well, during this day, all over the world, all the participating students will read the same book. And this year's book selection was "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" written by Eric Carle. The reading event started at the White House USA and then it went all over the world.
What is the purpose of this event ? This event is organised for the purpose of giving all the kids all over the world an opportunity to read. And related to this, Summer Academy organises a book donation event for under-privillege kids in Kapar (nearby Klang). So the books and stationaries that our Kids and Parents donate, will donated to these kids in kapa (the book /stationary donation will close on 30 October 2009). So to be continued.

After the reading session, the Summer Academy students did some activities related to the book. They made a book mark, a giant caterpillar, ate some of the food that the caterpillar ate, face painting and more...

The students had a blast. See for yourself....
