On 21st of May, the Tokomairiro High School Library was visited by New Zealand author FiFi Colston. Fifi has had a varied career,but the over riding theme of her work has been creativity. From an early age she had a love of drawing and she followed this into a career in design, but over the years she has accepted many challenges working as a children's author, a poet, a television presenter, costume designer, wearable art maker . Currently her book on wearable art is a finalist in the New Zealand Post Children's Book Awards.
Fifi spoke to 25 students from Year 7 to 13 and her main message was to work hard at what you love and take the opportunities life presents you .
