Given in the school assembly by the great Mr Goay, the story of a small boy and thousands of starfish on the beach touches many lives (but does it touches any minds?)What is a starfish?
Why do the starfishes get washed up on the beach?
Will the starfish live when it is thrown back into the sea?
Is it wise to pick up a starfish with a bare hand?
Creative tale require creative mind to ponder and synthesize these remarkable questions.

Most starfish live in the deepest parts of the sea and are often found hiding under rocks or in tide pools. Starfish are sometimes carried into shore during high tide. These are the starfish you may commonly see on the sand or close to shore. Because starfish can only survive two hours out of water, it's recommended that you leave starfish where you find them)
