Remuera Library welcomes Shared Histories as Baradene College students launch their book

A large group of Baradene College students  presented an overview of the research project and the steps in creating the exhibition and book. They then read from sections of the book that we launched at the event. Finally they gave a presentation about the trip they went on to France. It was a great event.
