Every step forward counts
This year’s 26Ten Week theme is Every step forward counts. From 20 to 26 October, everyone is invited to celebrate a step on their literacy journey. By sharing your story, you’re helping build a stronger, more connected Tasmania – one step at a time.
Everyone has a literacy journey. Whether you’re learning something new, or helping others, your story matters. 26Ten Week is a chance to join a powerful statewide celebration of literacy, learning and connection.
