Reading Buddies

Teens help kids practice reading in a safe and fun environment. In-person meetings are offered at the Poirier and the City Centre branches.

During this summer session, we are happy to accept students who have finished Grade 8 or Grade 12 as teen volunteers, and kids who have finished Kindergarten or Grade 4 as young readers.
