The Centrality of Story in the Curriculum by John McKenzie. His sessions were quite engaging & thought-provoking.

Book Launch of "God is Hu?" by Susanna Goho-Quek at Earshot Cafe.

A lovely book about nature. Part of the proceeds go to the SAVH (S'pore Association for the Visually Handicapped)

Synopsis

Susanna Goho-Quek's first picture book, God is Hu? shows her love of painting, nature and telling stories to children. God Is Hu? is a book that celebrates the wondrous beauty and colours of the world. It tells the story of how the world was created with the magic of God's imaginary paintbrush. From the smallest pebble to the splendour of the sea, God fills in the tiniest details and the most sweeping landscapes with joy, laughter and love.

A grandmother herself, Susanne loves working with children. She has also established herself as one of the most respected names in the antiques and collectibles market. Susanna was also an interior decorator, art exhibition planner and fashion designer.
