Environmental Literature

John Dennison for down south came over to teach the students a lot about poetry and how it connects with God's creation. Some of the students cringed at the idea of having to dissect poetry, but in the end all said they found a new appreciation of it-- especially Haikus. During our week of class we had a visit to Quail Island, a little island of Lyttelton Harbour. The island still holds some of the quarentine buildings of old exiled lepers.

Students enjoy a lovely day in Quail Island and experience all the voices of nature while studying Env. Lit.
