World Book Day – what does that have to do with a Telecommunications Company we hear you ask?
Well, first of all, here at Evoke Telecom, we believe that every child should have the right to an education. And not just any education, but the very best education that can be made available. Every year we see an ever increasing squeeze on schools budgets, which alongside rising costs means that invariably learning resources and ultimately student outcomes come under pressure. One area that always seems to bounce down the priority list when schools draw up their budgets sadly are library books. It’s wonderful that schools have libraries of course, but the books take quite a bashing and of course regularly need refreshing with new and exciting titles.
So, in response to this, every year, on or around World Book Day, Evoke Telecom delivers its Books 4 Schools campaign. What we aim to do is provide a nice little selection of 25 new books each to both Primary Schools and Nursery Schools up and down the country.
This year’s books started to come in last week with titles from exciting authors including:-
Michael Morpurgo
Ali Sparkes
Jeremy Strong
Michelle Bates
And this year every schools will be getting a selection of the ever popular ‘100 facts’ books from Miles Kelly.
We love this event every year – but I must say the offices are absolutely full of books and we cant wait to get them where they belong, into children’s hands, as soon as possible.
If you would like to know more about Evoke Telecom in schools or add your schools (or children’s schools) to next year’s list then why not drop us a line at [email protected] or give us a call on 01509 278278.
