On Friday 20 September, Australian author Andy Griffiths spoke to our Grade 3 to 6 girls. Andy and Terry Denton have collaborated on more than 30 best-selling books. He spoke about the popular Treehouse series.

He is a stand-up comedian and a self-proclaimed prankster, which came through in his presentation. The girls were delighted when he took out a water pistol and proceeded to spray some of them.

Well done to Molebogeng Pitje and Alexandra Kobus for the lovely introduction they gave to Andy’s talk.

I thank Pan Macmillan and Exclusive Books for giving us this opportunity to host Andy Griffiths. A special thanks to Andy for being such an inspiring
speaker. We hope to see him again.
