Fiji


Hey guys,
you've probably been wondering why we didn't post last week. That's because we went to Fiji for 6 days. The purpose of our trip was to support an Organisation called a girl and her world. A girl and her world is an organisation that funds education for girls . 
in need. It was an absolutely rewarding experience. We visited quiet a few different villages and also had the pleasure of visiting two schools, both had libraries. Unfortunately one of the Libraries was badly affected by Cyclone Winston. Therefore we wanted to dedicate this post to appreciate our own library and not to take for granted how lucky we are to have such a large and extensive library that caters to all our students needs. We cannot stress enough how important reading is for the brains development and for a healthy imagination. One of the village elders told us that since he started encouraging the young children to read, it has helped their progression in school immensely. He said it is hard to come by books, because the village is so secluded it’s tucked away really. This is yet another reason to why we stress the fact that reading is important and how lucky we are to have our library. We are so happy that the Fijians agree with us
 
We are going to ask you lovely readers to go to the library or email us what your favourite things about our Library is and we can write it on the windows. This is a quick thing you can do to support our library and to show much you value it.

As always hope to hear from you and thank you for tuning in Zinnia and Gwendoline :)
