Anita Heiss Author Book Launch
Last Friday 23rd of June was the anniversary of the 1852 Gundagai flood. To mark this period in Gundagai's history and to honour our local Wiradjuri heroes, Yarri and Jackey Jackey, Australian author Anita Heiss travelled all the way from Queensland for a most special book launch. Year 3/4 and Year 6 walked to the Gundagai Library to be part of the launch. Anita was in Gundagai for the launch of her new adult fiction book Bila Yarrudhanggalangdhuray River of Dreams and also the accompanying children's book Bisho Galing. The children were treated to a reading of the picture book followed by question time. Most excited to be part of this special launch was the Year 6 literature, book club group of Abigail Bock, Charlotte McDonnell, Nate Tozer and Tessa Crowe who had recently finished reading one of Anita's novels "Race for Reconciliation" Thank You to Cindy at the Gundagai Library for organising an amazing experience for our students.
