The Great Muritai Book Swap

Last Thursday as part of their Ancient Civilisation studies, the Year 3 and 4 team dressed as a person from their studied country and ate a hearty morning tea based on food eaten in ancient times. We had Greeks, Vikings  and Aztecs roaming the classrooms. Lucky Aztecs having lots of chocolate and food with a Mexican type theme. It was very interesting to see what everyone came up with. We were Vikings.

After morning tea the classes set up their market stall to trade books for the Great Muritai Book Swap. In the spirit of ancient times, students traded tokens for their donated books and went shopping in their buddy classes!  We have been learning about trading, bartering and ancient markets and how a communities long ago met their needs.

Students donated a gold coin to participate and this money will be spent on the World Vision, Smiles catalogue. Each class will decide which gifts to donate to help people in need in other countries.
