and the

ROTARY DICTIONARY PROJECT

• Commenced in NZ in 2008 The project is run by Rotary clubs throughout New Zealand and has been taken up by clubs in every district. To date dictionaries with a retail value of over $5 million have been distributed.

• The objective of the project is for Year 4 children (8-9 year olds) in low decile schools to personally receive their own copy from a Rotarian or Inner Wheel member at a school presentation.

• The project is intended to be: on going – every year – nationwide.

• Fits Rotary International goal of ‘Literacy Development’ – also benefits mums & dads i.e. the whole household. (Over time will be a great literacy aid for most low decile homes NZ wide)

Upon receipt of  a participation enquiry the Organising Club is provided with helpful marketing and presentation material to assist with promotion to qualifying schools in their area.
