2021 IS UNDERWAY

Hi everyone,

2021 is now underway, and already the end of term one is now in sight. But before it arrives you'll all get to enjoy Easter eggs first.  Guess what! I've had my first visit to a school, and I absolutely loved hanging out with the awesome kids at Glen Massey School. When I get to talk about writing and also have fun with drama, I'm as happy as a piglet in mud!  Nothing quite like a country school for a relaxed environment. Here's hoping covid stays well away so we don't have any more lockdowns this year. 

I've been busy writing again, and enjoying myself. I've just finished another fun school production script, written especially for Te Kuiti Primary. That's a special place as it's where some of our kids went to school, and also where I worked for a few years, so happy memories for me. I'm looking forward to seeing it when it's on later in the year. I never get tired of seeing my characters come to life on stage. I've also just started on another new script as well. Go Judi, go Judi, write, write, write!


I think after 2020 we're all a bit nervous about making too many plans! Duffy Book role model assemblies are in planning and I'll be heading to..........drum roll please....... GISBORNE!  This is our third time trying to get there, so fingers crossed it finally happens. But before that I'm lucky enough to visit two schools in West Auckland as well. Very exciting stuff happening. 

Don't forget my Youtube channel. I have a few poems. for littlies and you older kidlets as well.

Do you know what this means? I love sayings and finding out where they first started. 



Don't forget that I love hearing from you, so send me a message.

Hi Ben,

How neat to hear from you. WOWOWOW I am your 2nd favourite author after Dr Seuss. How amazing is that for me. Don't worry too much about spelling, as the older you get the better you get at that 'stuff.' I love Dr Seuss too, he knows how to have fun with words!
I'm so pleased you love, love LOVE my books, as I love writing for kids just like you.

Hey Judi, today you came to my school, Manchester Street School, I absolutely loved your hilarious talk about poetry and speech making. You made it so fun that i don't think anyone wanted to say goodbye! Bringing Rosie was an excellent idea, she was adorable! I hope you visit again, you absolutely made my day! All the best wishes for you in the future!

Hi Jaye,

For some reason my laptop has not notified me of any messages, and I am so sorry that you didn't hear from me earlier. Manchester St School was a brilliant day, and Rosie was on her best behaviour. I love it when kids tell me they enjoy my poetry and they have a laugh. Check out my new YouTube channel as I have been posting some videos of me saying some of my poems. Let me know what you think.

Hi again Keaton, it is so nice to hear from you, and know that you enjoyed my poems enough to want me to come back to Horotiu School. Maybe you could tell your teacher and then I might get asked haha.

Hi Judi,
I can think of no better way to celebrate National Poetry Day than the fun afternoon you provided for my class of Year 4 and 5 students from Whenuakite School. We thoroughly enjoyed your enthusiastic and energetic presentation to us. My class gave such positive feedback saying "that was fun" She was cool and funny" They enjoyed participating in poem performances. I am sure we will have lots of fun reading your poems and visiting your website next week.Thanks for today.

Hi Margaret,

What a lovely message to find here. For some reason I've not been getting notifcation of comments, and just saw messages tonight dating back to March! I had a blast with your class, what superstars you get to hang out with, and that is fabulous they enjoyed my poetry and performance. I think I'd just started my YouTube channel, and I have now added a few more poems. You'll find a link on here. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting you all.

Hi Arabella,

What a lovely message and thank you so much. I really enjoy being at Pukete School and hasn't it been so much fun doing the production together. You've done an awesome job and I was so proud of how much better you got with each show. I'd love to do some more drama at school, and hope I can make it happen. You can always come to my lessons at home haha. Keep on reading poetry, and check out my YouTube channel, the link is on here.

Hi Arabella,

You made my day with your lovely message, and it gives me warm fuzzies knowing I inspire some young people. You were great in the production last year, and guess what, I've written this year's show as well. You'll have to come along and see it, it's fun. Hope Maeroa is going well and you're enjoying it, and good luck finding some of your old friends from there.

Hugs

Judi
