Marie Clay Conference Address
In 2016, NZLA and the Marie Clay Literacy Trust were proud to present the first Marie Clay Address.
Marie Clay was both a national and international treasure, a literacy expert and the mother of Reading Recovery.
The Marie Clay Address was instigated to honour her achievements and her life-long commitment to literacy.
A recognized and highly regarded New Zealand speaker is selected to give this address at the NZLA conference each year.
