Once again the First Voice project has delivered a wonderful bundle of writing!
55 Palmerston North Intermediate Normal School students, from 27 non-English speaking backgrounds, produced a piece of writing in their mother tongue. This year, the theme was ‘Unique Nations’. With the assistance of mentors, the pieces were proofread. When the students returned to school, the results were published.
Amazing to see so many languages and scripts represented, from Tokelauan to Urdu, Swedish to Samoan.
You can peruse the finished article at Palmerston North City Library. It’s available as a physical version, and also online via Manawatū Heritage.
Congratulations to all the students involved – you’ve done an excellent job!
