Letter Writing - New Zealand Post

Room 6 and 7 are writing letters to each other, everyone will need to bring an envelope and $1 stamp so we can mail these.  All the children have had to tell some things about themselves and ask questions to their buddy.  Once the children have received their letter they will reply using email.  Wilmer asked us what the $1 postage was used for, check out the video.
