Many schools: kura, preschools, colleges, kindy’s, primary schools in the Hawkes’Bay have lost their entire libraries through the damage wrought by Cyclone Gabrielle.
Books Back Better is a campaign to collect monetary donations from our wider communities around the motu to buy Booksellers NZ Tokens and distribute these to kura/schools, Kohanga Reo, and Kindy’s affected by the recent cyclone Gabrielle in Aotearoa.
A group of local Hawkes Bay authors, school librarians, and booksellers, led by authors including NZSA members Mary-anne Scott & Cris Sanders, have teamed up with SLANZA (School Library Association of NZ), Wardinis and Booksellers Aotearoa New Zealand to create the Books Back Better project.
