22 August 2017

Teacher Christian der Kinderen came up with an idea for his story, The Blobs, when taking a year off from teaching at , Mount Waverley, to travel throughout South America and parts of Europe. Returning to school, Christian spent a year writing his story with a mind to teach his students to respect and care for one another and to accept each other for who they are. The book was picked up by Empowering Resources, a specialist publisher with a mission to promote books that nurture, educate and empower children and adults.

 

With a strong narrative about refugees and acceptance, the release of The Blobs was celebrated by Holy Family with an Anyone can be an Author day, where Christian went around to all the classes, reading his story to the students and working with them to develop some characters that they can use during their next writing session.

The Blobs is available from .

Escape to Everywhere is the theme for the 2017 which runs until 26 August.
