Playing with Stories was such a great experience. It allowed our children to expand their love of reading while also providing a chance to be a part of our community and meet many new families. We loved it and would sign up in a heartbeat if offered again.”

Parent, Playing with Stories

“Our after-school tutoring program at Parkdale has been very successful, with parents eager to access the supports and students enjoying the engaging play-based learning activities. Our students are not only benefiting from literacy and math instruction, and furthering English language skills but also gaining a love of learning and building positive esteem towards school.”

Kristen Moore, Principal of Parkdale Elementary

“The UPEI play-based literacy and numeracy camp has been a valuable and vital intervention for student learning at Georgetown Elementary School. Students who have attended the program are continuing to work at grade level during the school year. Keeping students engaged throughout the summer months, allows students who normally slip below grade level over the summer to start the year at grade level and prepared for the challenges ahead.”
