Story

Paint the Town REaD is honoured to be in partnership with the Books for Bubs in the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit), at John Hunter Hospital, Newcastle NSW Project. This project aims to give each family admitted to the NICU a book bag with a story book and a booklet of lullabies or nursery rhymes. We hope it helps both parents and family members to create special bonds and treasured memories.The project is in memory of Bodhi Adrian Harper (19 November 2014 - 20 December 2014), and has been initiated by his Grandmother Arona.You can read more about their story at https://www.facebook.com/helptheharpers/?ref=bookmarks And the Books for Bubs project at https://www.facebook.com/booksforbubsinthenicu/

More than 20% of Australian kids arrive at school without the skills necessary to make the most of their early education. We work to overcome this by motivating communities across Australia to read, talk, sing and rhyme with their children so they’re ready to learn to read and write at school.
