And thank you so much for giving Afeif and myself the opportunity to be part of it with the Year 3's and Year 6. I loved visiting you, sharing ideas about writing and enjoyed hearing all your suggestions for the short stories we wrote as a class. I also had a wonderful time with the Year 1's at Subiaco Primary School where the creative juices flowed as we came up with class poems. They made me feel very welcome at their school too. It was really great to see your imaginations at work (and your humour! - especially the Year 6's) and we look forward to reading the poems and stories you come up with yourselves. What a wonderful opportunity the Festival is for all you budding readers and writers. Happy imagining and creating! Hi Everyone

How many books about dinosaurs and whales do you think we will need? Rosalie School library will have to become VERY large very soon, I suspect! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It was great fun learning about the things that interest you all. You are such a clever group of Year Ones. Alex's Mum, Cathryn Dear Year Ones in Room 10

I had an email today from a published author who was once a Rosalie student, after he saw my blog post about attending the festival. I asked him to drop by this blog and leave a message ;-) Funny you should say that, Mike.
