CHILDREN across Canvey will be presented with new dictionaries, thanks to the Rotary Club.
Every child in Year 6 at school on the island will receive an Usborne Dictionary for Life, which has a user’s guide, parts of speech and a history of the language included.
The latest school to receive its books was Leigh Beck Primary School, where Canvey Rotary Club president Bill Dudbridge made the presentation. He said “This has been a very successful project and the children at Leigh Beck were very excited at receiving the dictionaries.”
