Week 6 - Author Mark Sommerset, Grandparents' Day

Wow! What a jam-packed four days we've had!  We were off to a great start with NZ author Mark Sommerset coming to talk to us and share some of his fantastic stories.  You may know some of his titles (Baa Baa Smart Sheep, Cork on the Ocean, Two Little Bugs). 

Thursday marked the beginning of Matariki, the maori new year.  We have heard several stories about the 7 stars that mark the new year.  We had so much fun creating our art pieces. Make sure you come in and check them out!

Thank you to all the Grandparents who managed to pop in on Friday morning.  It was so wonderful to see the children sharing their learning with you.  There was a lot of excitement in the air.
