SUCCESS for this year's Wagga Food and Wine Festival will mean a great boost for Willans Hill School's literacy project.The school was named as the beneficiary of the festival when it was launched by former member for Riverina, Kay Hull, yesterday morning.Beneficiaries from the last two years, Wagga Renal Dialysis Unit and Riverina Cancer Care, both received $30,000 after the festival was enjoyed by thousands.Willans Hill School principal Christine Lennon was delighted at the news, which will benefit the school's literacy project that aims to give each student the tools they need to communicate."These guys are so generous," Mrs Lennon said at the launch."Willans Hill School is striving to bring world's best practice to our students and the proceeds from this event will provide funds to allow students to have a 'pencil' tailored to their special needs. It might be an actual pencil, it might be a sophisticated communication device, it might be a switch-adapted mouse."We just believe that without communication and literacy in the 21st century, you can't access life. Now we're seeing world's best practice, and we can't ignore it."President of Wollundry Rotary, Kevin Roben, said the school was an outstanding choice and the next few weeks will be full steam ahead for the club as it prepares for the huge event on March 26."In previous years we decided amongst the club who we'd give the money to, but this year we went to the public to get different organisations (to put together a proposal and Willans Hill's) was outstanding," he said.
