La Trobe University Community Children’s Centre called for donations of new toys and books for the children who had lost everything in the recent bushfires. Paragon Publishing company donated some 4,000 new books for us to distribute to fire affected communities. Some of the books, the more activity based, were distributed to Community Centres imediately. We also have replenished a considerable number of children’s personal libraries. The remaining books it is proposed be used to replenish the libraries of those schools and kindergartens damaged in the recent fires.
