Read a Book for Māori Language Week

We have some new books in our library to celebrate Maori Language week - Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori.

Kei te Pēhea Koe is a beautifully illustrated book.  Each emotion has an illustration drawn in different colours.  The illustration for 'Kei te pukuriri au I feel angry,' has tones of reddish pink.

This picture book also has a very user-friendly pronunciation guide at the back.  A great book to practise saying how you feel in te reo.

Room 5's first go at Speed Bookin'

This was so much fun to watch!  We had a variety of books, one dating back to 1975!  Funny books to children's books.  I think after about the third time Room 5 found it easier to sell their book to their classmates.  I look forward to our next Speed Bookin' experience.
