I’m working with young writers at Flatbush School this term and today we had an inspiring visit by Raymond Sagapolutele. Raymond is a professional photographer and an amazing role model for our young Pasifika storytellers. “You are orators and your story is important,” Raymond said. “A lot of times us adults don’t listen to children, but the way you see things is different, and shows us other ways of looking at our world.” Thank you Otara-Papatoetoe Local Board and Read NZ for supporting this project.
