Our school community was lucky enough to meet and interact with the author Christy Jordan-Fenton.
She brought with her, the grandmother of her children and this lovely soft spoken lady, shared her experiences of her childhood when she left her community at the age of eight and spent two years at school.
The three books that were written about 'grandmother' will now be housed in
our school library, where our children will be able to read them and remember the
resilience and strength of a girl who wanted to learn to read.
Thank you to Mrs. Borowski for organizing this author visit, which touched all of our hearts.
