Hawke’s Bay literacy support with love

Every child is worthy of thriving in literacy.  When a child is confident to read, write and communicate, they can reach their full potential. For many children this happens within a normal classroom setting. For others, they need something that works alongside this setting and that’s where Literacy Connect can help. 

Teachers work incredibly hard to meet the needs of every child in their class.  They work long hours, provide individualised plans for students, compile assessment data and ensure the wellbeing of all students in their care.  However, for some students, they still require more to reach their full potential. That’s where we join in on your child’s learning journey.

The Literacy Collective is an nz reading recovery service based in Napier, Hawke's Bay, helping with accelerating reading and writing and also dyslexia support.

Personalised Learning

Your child’s unique literacy position and goals are assessed, with a learning path driven by their unique interests and challenges. Whether you want to boost their literacy skills to catch up to their peers, support them with unique learning needs including dyslexia or simply accelerate a natural aptitude for reading, you can expect tangible results communicated clearly and delivered with love.

Holistic Approach to Literacy

While focusing on your child’s specific literacy needs, we will develop their skill set across all three pillars of literacy; reading, writing and spelling. Each discipline supports success in the other and in turn, confidence in literacy boosts other key factors of a child’s wellbeing and success.

Partnering with Teachers

We work alongside your child’s teacher to understand how best to support ongoing classroom work. Shared assessment information and strategies feed back into the classroom setting. By working together with Napier teachers, we can achieve fast and lasting literacy success.

Evidence-based learning with kindness

Children reach their full potential through meaningful, engaging literacy learning. By embracing emerging research around teaching and learning best-practice, our literacy support sessions help children reach their full potential, and in a way that is led by love and kindness.

Grow their reading confidence

Studies show children with strong literacy skills have increased self-confidence and independence. Reading promotes maturity, increases discipline and develops a child’s creativity, imagination and general knowledge. Teaching early literacy skills influences the entire functioning and development of the brain and sets the foundation for future learning and intellectual achievement.

A tailored approach for success

Through developing a personal relationship with your child, we are able to tap into their unique interests and provide material in a format and subject that motivates your child to read and improves their comprehension.
