It is long and narrow with a sitting room and bedroom both off the hallway, and at the back is the small kitchen/living room and the bathroom. It has a tiny garden courtyard. It is fully furnished and the Trust provides broadband and a landline.

STORYLINES BETTY GILDERDALE AWARD Past to Present: Navigating New Zealand Children’S Literature
STORYLINES BETTY GILDERDALE AWARD Past to present: Navigating New Zealand Children’s Literature Presentation Dunningham Room Dunedin Public Library November 6 2015 Trish Brooking [email protected] Zealand Storylines Betty Gilderdale Award Past to present: Navigating New Zealand Children’s Literature Kia ora koutou. What an honour it is to be presented with the Storylines Betty Gilderdale Award for 2015. Thank you to Dr. Libby Limbrick and Storylines for making this possible and to Sandy McKay and Storylines for organising this lovely event. Storylines provides a unique advocacy role in New Zealand by promoting author events up and down the country and helping children develop a love of literature. Furthermore, as a representative of IBBY (International Board on Books for Young People), Storylines is hosting the 35th IBBY International Congress in Auckland from 18-21 August 2016. Well done to Libby and her team. It is wonderful to have so many family, friends and colleagues here tonight so thank you very much for coming along. Receiving this award means a lot to me and I would especially like to thank my fabulous family – Tom, Rachel and Chris, Peter and Morgana, and especially our junior book worms, Zac, Orla and Felix, for enthusiastic support. What a week we have had with the All Blacks, the Silver Ferns and a New Zealand horse winning the Melbourne Cup. I was one who rose early on the morning of the rugby World Cup final so I can claim to be a sports fan, yet I look forward to the day when we equally celebrate cultural success, and in particular, the literary successes of our esteemed New Zealand children’s writers and illustrators, who I believe, are deserving of similar accolades.

Books to Read 2017-09
Books To Read: Current Edition: 2017.01 © J Vaughan A list of recommendations… Compiled by John Vaughan Edition: February 2017 © John Vaughan Read! Read! Read! Read! Read! Read! Read! Read! 1 Books To Read: Current Edition: 2017.01 © J Vaughan Books to Read Introduction This list is compiled based on my years as a teacher, encouraging my students into reading. The books or authors I have listed are ones which I have either had a lot of success with over the years as a teacher, or have been read by my students and recommended to me. The titles are targeted at the Year 7-8 age group, but can deﬁnitely be enjoyed by older (and sometimes younger) readers as well! I have entered them into the list because they have already proved themselves successful, and also because they are a “good read”, but please remember this is just ONE person's preferences and opinions, as are all book reviews. Everyone’s taste in reading is different, so I recommend you try a wide range of titles & authors. Some parents may disagree with my choices based on content, subject matter or suitability for level. That's okay with me! ☞ If you are in doubt about a book, read it yourself before offering it to your child! I have read all these titles myself (and yes, I enjoyed them - they wouldn't be in this list, otherwise!) Please note that I will not read a book to a class without reading it myself ﬁrst, just to check content. Having said that, there are some books in the list I would not read to classes because of the content, but I believe are suitable for home reading.

Reading on Up
Reading On Up Books to share with children from eight to twelve years old Compiled by Storylines Children’s Literature Charitable Trust of New Zealand www.storylines.org.nz Reading On Up It’ll be great if you read some of these stories to your kid(s). It'll be even greater if you read some with your kids. You’ll both end up healthier. A lot of people see reading as a passive activity, a process of sitting and absorbing. It’s not. For one thing, how many 8-12-year-olds just sit to read or hear stories? They shift around; they jerk in their seats at the tense bits; they laugh and gasp and go ‘Aww, sick!’ For the audience at this age, and for the adults who read to them, books are an emphatically physical activity. More significantly, books also promote mental and emotional fitness. They extend kids’ emotional range, let them make comparisons and contrasts with themselves - comparisons that can reassure and stimulate them. Children who read stories where someone their age has triumphs or laughs or adventures feel ‘Yes! I can do that, too!’ Books develop neural links that no other activity seems to. They deepen a young reader’s inner resources, and take them into those quiet, deep, timeless experiences that are such an antidote to the distraction and fragmentation of the world. And of course, books let kids enjoy themselves. They’re great fun: alarming fun, gentle fun, rude fun, loving and sad fun. (Indeed there’s such a thing.) They let you as an adult have the huge pleasure and privilege of sharing that fun with your or other kids.
