He told us The Lolly Tree story in a really funny way. He made some shapes out of the strings he brought with him. Here are some photos.

ASB Money Save Adventure

On Wednesday the 31st of August an ASB  lady called Hollie Sutton came in and told us about how to save money. She told us that you can save your money in the bank and you will get a free gift called an interest. She told us  about her story when she got her first eftpos card and she told us how to use an eftpos  card properly. She even told us ways to earn. They were chores, neighborhood work, Sell and trade and the last of all was business. These are some photos that Mr Lynch took.
