School Library
Our 'Mini Library' is now up and running, which is positioned in the old library space next to Kaakano 0's class as well as in the resource room next door. We purchased partitions to separate the spaces. We were able to keep most of our library books available for children to issue, and we are running a couple of different strategies to allow children to issue books, while avoiding disruption for Kaakano 0, who is next door. Classes either send small groups to issue books, or Whaea Emma delivers her portable library collection to Kaakano 1 and Kaakano 2 for them to choose and issue books from their classroom. Whaea Emma is still running lunchtime library clubs, using the Maahuri Deep Cave, approximately three times a week.
