22.02.17 Our precious things

It was the day we were exploring precious things and spaces they were kept in.  I realised how precious the relationship I had build up with Naomi was.  It felt a little strange welcoming someone new into our special space.

Fortunately it was a chance meeting at an Art course over lunch with Vanessa, that I was first introduced to Kids’ Own Publishing Partnership and The Virtually There project.

Vanessa had let me share her Virtually There session for a morning and now I was sharing my precious Virtually There space with her.

I had observed, what appeared to be, the effortless relationship between Vanessa and Andrew, the artist she had worked with for many years on the project.
A similar relationship I think is building between Naomi and myself.

Vanessa slotted right into the class activity and was sharing her precious object with the class. As the lesson unfolded it was lovely to have another enthusiastic person interacting with the children. Vanessa had so much time with the children and was so encouraging. Mrs Patton videoed conversations with the children on the ipad.  Another dimension was now operating alongside the familiar exchanges with Naomi at the microphone.

It’s good to have Vanessa in sharing the class experience.
