Tas e-News Issue 2: April 2016 Patrons: Her Excellency Professor PO Box 113, Moonah, Tas., 7009 the Hon. Kate Warner AM email: [email protected] and Mr Richard Warner web: www.cbcatas.org Editor: Penny Garnsworthy blog: http://cbcatas.blogspot.com/ ________________________________________________________________________________________ From President Richard Our year has started well with collaboration between Tamar Valley Writers Festival, Friends of the Library Launceston and the Sustainability Learning Centre allowing us to tour Carole Wilkinson in Launceston and Hobart. While it was disappointing to see so few CBCA members at the public talks, it was heartening to see so many new people at the Hobart session. Thank you to Jenny Dudgeon (Manager, Sustainability Learning Centre) for her hospitality. April 18 sees the announcements of this year’s Notable Books, with the Short List announcement on May 20. CBCA’s Book of the Year Awards are the premier children’s literature awards; being made a notable or short listed is a huge boost to an author/illustrator’s career. One of last year’s short listed authors, debut novelist Tamsin Janu, captivated young audiences at the Tamar Valley Writers Festival. More important dates for your calendar: The Hidden Stories Forum on 7 September and 11 September. More details soon! I will be attending my last CBCA National AGM at the end of this month. CBCA Branches around the country are finding it difficult to fill committee positions. Please consider your own involvement carefully – can you help keep CBCA Tasmanian Branch alive?

There have been exciting developments for the KMS since our first issue last December. Thanks to the hard work of our Secretary Tracey MacLeod (and you can read all about her on page 11), we became legally constituted as a charitable trust under the New Zealand Charitable Act 1957 and have applied to the New Zealand Charities Commission to confirm our charitable status. The Society was officially launched in January and quickly picked up by the global press, con- firming what we already knew – that KM continues to be read and loved the world over! Our website is now live and if you haven’t done so already check it out at www.katherinemansfieldsociety.org. You’ll find information about the Society and how to join. The KMS will host a symposium at Menton on 25 September 2009 during a week of celebra- tions marking the 40th anniversary of the Katherine Mansfield Memorial Fellowship. -

Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Rocking Horse Road by Carl Nixon Bobs Books Blog
Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Rocking Horse Road by Carl Nixon Bobs Books Blog. I missed this excellent novel about teenagers growing up in Christchurch New Zealand in the 1980’s. It attracted my attention because I live on the coastal East side of Christchurch and I intimately know the Rocking Horse Road area of South New Brighton. It is a long beach finger, between the ocean and the estuary of the Avon and Heathcote rivers. One morning in the hot summer of 1980 the body of 16 year old Lucy Asher is found at the high tide area of South Brighton beach. She had been sexually assaulted and murdered. She is found by Pete Marshall who is a year younger than Lucy and the consequences of Lucy’s death will affect him and his mates for the rest of their lives. The police investigation into Lucy’s murder does not result in a culprit being caught so the boys(one of them narrates the story), conduct their own investigation until well into their 40’s. It dominates their lives, but will they solve the case? At the same time the 1981 Springbok Rugby Tour of New Zealand takes place, a tour that divided the country and resulted in some appalling behaviour from both sides of the argument. The boys are caught up in this as well. It is a loss of innocence story both for the teenage boys and the country. Neither will be the same again. The environment of the estuary and beach is a huge part of the appeal of this novel.
