Book Character Day





We had a book character day on Wednesday 12 Aug, the first time the school has had one in a long time. The kids and teachers got right behind it and really made a great effort. We had a parade in the morning and the junior and senior teachers swapped classes to read stories. I went and visited the junior classes as "Willy Wonka" and read Hairy Maclary stories to them. In all, a fun day.

On another note, I volunteered to be a driver for a day as part of the Storylines Tour this week. (I now know Manurewa intimately!) I had Elizabeth Pulford, Phillip Webb, Dawn McMillian and Darryl Torckler in the van and it was a pleasure to meet and talk with these talented people. They shared their stories with me and were just lovely. I highly recommend taking the time to volunteer if you are able.
