Thurs 7 Feb 08 2.00pm - 3.00pm
We had a fabulous afternoon with our local visiting author, Neil Griffiths, on 7.2.08. His love of reading definitely rubbed off on the children, when he shared his books, "Messy Martin", "The Journey" and "Itchy Bear". The Children joined in book performances which included lots of laughter and whoops of delight! Thankyou to those who attended the fabulous session for parents on helping our children become life long readers,they had the opportunity to buy some of Neil's books and the feedback they gave was excellent. The teaching staff were entertained after school with a lively, inspiring presentation and lots of storytelling interactio. check out the action in the photographs!
