Loved presenting Gladys and Stripey -- my environmental children's book -- to Grade 1s at Watsonia Heights Primary School for Science Day. After the main presentation, I visited three classrooms, so each child had the chance to move their fish of choice, or eel, up (and down) the (painted) fish ladder. Nothing like a hands-on exercise to bring fun and learning together. Thanks to Emma, the wonderful science teacher, who made those endearing eels! I intend to make more over the term break.
