The Very Hungry Caterpillar Turns 50!

Last week, the library hosted our annual Year 2 Literary Party and celebrated the 50^th anniversary of Eric Carle’s The Very Hungry Caterpillar. The library was transformed with stunning displays and two caterpillars and one butterfly (Mrs Lily Smith, Mrs Peta Griffin and Ms Sue Warren) led the excited children through a range of activities including making crawling caterpillars on leaves, creating floating butterflies and a tricky treasure hunt. Then, the hungry hordes of students were let loose on a delicious banquet. Once again, our amazing Hospitality Department provided food that was a visual feast as well as a very tasty one! Students all had a great time and this will be a lasting memory for them. What a fabulous way to share the joy of books – fun and food!
