Support a local writer and show a teacher you appreciate them! With the end of the school year in sight, you might be thinking about what to get for your child’s teacher. Not Just A Teacher is the perfect present. It’s a poetic tribute acknowledging all the different roles that teachers fulfil (see sample pages below). Xmas special (this week only) - $20.00 (selling for $24.99 at Paper Plus and other bookstores) + Free delivery in central Gisborne area.

Arty Farty is going into recess! It’s been fun, but I’ve decided it’s time for me to actually have a holiday during the holidays. Thank you for sharing your most precious taonga (your tamariki) with me over the last 4 years. It has been a pleasure to watch them flourish and grow. I'm not totally ruling out the possibility that the programme may re-emerge at some point in the future, but for now it's time for a break.
