Did you hear the news?

Storybook characters committed crimes in AS1 last night!

When students arrived at school on Tuesday morning, they were shocked to see caution tape outside AS1's doors!

Inside the classroom, students found tables overturned, books scattered everywhere, papers crumpled and torn, and some mysterious messages written on the the whiteboard.

In addition, a number of their favourite toys had been tied up using skipping ropes and tape. 

Wait, are those the Three Bears?

To put it simply, the room was an enormous mess!

Wow! Look at the size of those footprints...

Students quickly started noticing some clues in the mess that helped them to narrow down the suspects.

Can you match the suspects to the clues?

Suspects include the Gruffalo, the Three Little Pigs, Little Red Riding Hood, Captain Hook, the Big Bad Wolf, Goldilocks and Harry Potter.

The Legend of Rata By AS1

 As part of our inquiry unit exploring the New Zealand native bush, AS1 students acted out The Legend of Rata. In this story, Rata is so determined to build a waka that he forgets to consider how his actions will impact the forest and the forest creatures.
