Sun dial

 Maverick read a book this week. It was about shadows. It had a clock in it that Whaea Nicky said in the old days when she was young was how we told the time. It is a tricky thing to understand how we can tell the time by the shadows that we see throughout the day - so - Maverick became our sundial. Each hour we drew an outline around his shadow and recorded the hour next to it. Over the following days and despite the rain, many tamariki stood in Mavericks shoe prints, and found out what time it was.
