Julie's story

After reaching out to Kinimathatakinta/George Town Library for help with her reading and maths, Julie can now do many things that have changed her life, such as going into a supermarket with confidence and being able to read the prices of things. Julie can now also read to her children and grandchildren and help them with their homework.

Huon 26Ten Community

The Huon 26Ten Community contributes to a prosperous community where local residents and workers have the confidence and skills they need to flourish in work and everyday life.

Shannon's story

"Through the 26Ten program I've gained more skills and more confidence with my maths and English. I've also learnt that with the right support, it's possible to learn again."

Acknowledgement of Country

26Ten recognises the deep histories and cultures of the Aboriginal people of Lutruwita/Tasmania, the land’s first storytellers. We acknowledge Tasmanian Aboriginal people as the traditional and continuing custodians of the land, waters and sky. We pay respect to the Elders, past and present, who hold the memories, traditions, culture and knowledge of Country. We extend our respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, whose Countries were never ceded.
