There were goings on at school today ...
various wild animals were sighted ...
It's lucky I brought my camera!
It was the school's book week celebration, this year with an African safari theme. As always, it was so much fun. We admired costumes as the children paraded, then went off in little groups to sit on blankets and read stories in the shade. I had an audience of two explorers, a lioness and a giraffe. It is an absolute joy to see everyone huddled together with their stories. Older children read to younger ones, parents, grand parents and aunties read. For a whole half hour everyone was still and settled and enjoying the company and stories.
Then we had lion burgers and ostrich burgers for lunch and the usual riot resumed. But for one half hour there was peace.
