Recently, students in Kindy Room 2 were treated to a very special visit from one of MacKillop’s own – Miss Kate Jones, Secondary Italian teacher and now published children’s author and illustrator.
Miss Jones visited Mrs Keedwell’s class to share her newly released book, The Adventures of Miss Mouse: A Cake for a Picnic. The heartwarming story explores themes of friendship, resilience, and community as Miss Mouse embarks on a mission to create something special for a friend. Complete with charming illustrations and even a cake recipe, the book quickly captured the attention of its young audience.
As a special gift, Miss Jones presented the class with a custom illustration of Miss Mouse and her friend dressed in MacKillop College uniforms. She has also generously donated a copy of her book to the College, which will soon be available for students to borrow from the Primary Library.
The Adventures of Miss Mouse has been independently published and is available for purchase through Etsy. Miss Jones says she hopes to continue the series, combining her love of storytelling, visual arts, and community connection.
We look forward to seeing where Miss Mouse’s next adventure will take her!
