The Odd Egg

We got back from NZ on Friday 6th May (yes, it's taken me a while to sort myself out and download photos) and there was much excitement as it meant that Monday meant school !!  Sadly, that was not to be and my countdown had to be restarted.  Hannah had a teacher only day as Tuesday was Buddha's Birthday (public holiday).  When I dropped Victoria off I asked if Hannah could come into her class to read a story.  Of course was the reply.

Hannah was most excited about it but I have to say a little person was EVEN more excited when we all turned up.  We've NEVER seen Victoria this excited before.  All the children were sitting on the mat waiting for Hannah.  The book of choice that day was The Odd Egg by Emily Gravett (fabulous children's author).  Victoria could barely sit still and jumped at the chance to sit by her sister to listen to the story (it was actually the best position to see the pictures).  We were all so very proud of her. 


Miss Jessica was Hannah's first teacher at Woodlands and she too was so proud of her.  She see how far she has come since leaving Woodlands nearly a year ago......Hannah has nearly finished her first year at primary school....(5 1/2 weeks and counting)...!!
