Keep your diaries handy...John Marsden, the popular Australian author of the Tomorrow series, from which came the movie: Tomorrow when the war began, is coming to New Zealand and we at HIBS are hosting a talk to our students as well as our neighboring schools. Being a huge fan of the series myself I cannot wait to meet him and find out what he is currenlty working on. In the meantime do the research, read the books http://www.johnmarsden.com.au/home.html check out the web site!
Another date to keep free is August 13 when John will be conducting a writing workshop in order to raise funds for the Christchurch re-build...the venue and time is still to be confirmed so watch this space for confirmation or check out the latest news on his visit with the Children's Bookshop in Kilburnie who are organising everything http://childrensbookshop.netstep.co.nz/?nsBookshop
