“A huge thank you from myself and the rest of Braehead parent council. This is a very generous donation, which we are overwhelmed by. The e-readers will not only hugely benefit the children but they will love them too. We have managed to purchase 17 e-readers and cases. The main reasons for wanting the e-readers was the ability to clean the reading material during covid, along with many other benefits such as increased reading levels, ability to change print size and help with dyslexia/visual processing disorders”.
Charlene Campbell – Chair, Braehead Primary Parent Council
