Today we were lucky enough to have the extremely talented Bruce Potter come and talk to us about his career. He is the illustrator for a number of well known books including 'Kaha the Kea', 'Caesar the ANZAC Dog', and the upcoming 'Penny the Prolific Pooing Cow'. Penny will be released in September and we were lucky enough to get a peek preview and have Bruce sing the story to us. We were also given a sneak preview into a book he is writing/illustrating called 'Doodle Bug' which has some amazing doodles in it. Bruce explained some doodles and told us about some hidden messages.

Maeroa Kapahaka
Today we were lucky enough to have the Maeroa Intermediate Kapahaka group come and perform for us at Southwell. They performed a variety of songs including hakas and songs involving the poi. Their timing was outstanding and we were amazed by the volume and their harmony during the songs. We wish them all the best for the upcoming National Championships being held in Tauranga and are sure they will represent Hamilton well.
