Literacy Aotearoa "Care and Craft" Program!

The Residents at Wish Trust have been working with the lovely ladies from Literacy Aotearoa every week on a Tuesday and have been absolutely loving it!

Literacy Aotearoa offers a range of free classes to adults across Aotearoa to help boost levels of critical literacy and numeracy, health and wellbeing and life skills. Alongside the STARS programme that builds literacy, numeracy and communication skills, they've reignited sessions of 'care and craft' that focuses on a sustainable food chain, healthy eating education and learning essential cooking skills. Together, the group gathers healthy (often rescued) ingredients to cook a vegetarian feast every Tuesday, which assists participants in learning food safety and preparation skills, alongside fostering a sense of autonomy and self responsibility for their diets and wellbeing.
