The Spice of Life

If variety is the spice of life, then Governors Bay School is a veritable rack of opportunities.  On a walk around the 4 classes this morning I saw and talked to children working with metaphors, children identifying the important parts of a fairy tale, children coming up with analogies for autumn leaves, and children working on developing their skills of recount as they learnt the mechanics of writing. The juniors then headed off to swimming and the senior classrooms spent the afternoon listening to stories, working on multi-media poetry to share with the world, writing stories, training for cross-country and dabbling in some art. The days here are rich and rewarding and exciting to be a part of. No two days are alike but they're all a lot fun.
