TP's dad told her that we used to use pounds, shillings and pence before 1967 and afterwards we changed to decimal currency and began to use dollars and cents.
Notice that some coins have the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II on them
but others show the effigy of her father King George VI.
Each coin has a design reflecting something special about New Zealand culture.
Several old coins have interesting Maori designs.
No more 'Mystery Bag'. JT
ReplyDeleteHi JT. Perhaps you can suggest to Mrs P that you can have Mystery Bag in Room 3! Mrs P likes it when children suggest ideas to her. You can tell her how we used to do it in Room 14. Mrs P decided to have the Maths Challenge in her class because children who were in Room 14 asked her if they could have it! Miss B
