Boosting Literacy Across All Ages

A new Tasmanian Government website is making it easier than ever for Tasmanians to access reading and writing support.

The Tasmanian Literacy Hub brings together practical guidance, information and services in one central online location, helping people quickly find the support they need to build their reading and writing skills and confidence.

Premier Jeremy Rockliff said the new Tasmanian Literacy Hub is part of the Government's ongoing commitment to lifting literacy outcomes across the state.

"It's helping us deliver on our commitment to ensure every Tasmanian, regardless of age, background or where they live, has the literacy skills to succeed," the Premier said.

"The Hub includes resources for people supporting others with reading and writing, as well as tools to help individuals build their own skills and confidence.

"It supports people at every stage - whether they're helping a child, a friend or a family member, or looking to strengthen their own reading and writing."

Minister for Education, Jo Palmer, said the Hub gives Tasmanians practical, easy to use support steps that can make a real difference in their everyday lives.

"Literacy is the foundation for learning, working and participating in community life," Minister Palmer said.

"We rely on reading and writing skills every day - whether it's shopping, using technology or supporting children with their homework. When people feel confident with these skills, it opens up more opportunities.

"Our Government is delivering for Tasmanians by making support more accessible and giving them the tools they need to build confidence and capability with reading and writing."
