Congratulations to Maia, Mila, Maia and Bella who were Term 3's Librarians of the Term! Your attendance was excellent, you were always on task, enthusiastic, friendly and helpful. You also worked well as a team. Ka Pai!
The sun shone on our book character parade this morning! It was wonderful to see so many children and staff members dressed up as familiar book characters. Thank you to the parents who worked behind the scenes to create some incredible costumes.
The syndicates dressed up in themes: Whanau Kowhai teachers were dressed as the very hungry caterpillar, his food, and the butterfly he turns into. They did a delightful skit.
Whanau Pohutukawa teachers were dressed as fairy tale characters, including Prince Charming, one of the Seven Dwarves, Captain Hook, etc, and strutted their stuff. They met children characters from their stories!
Whanau Harakeke teachers were dressed as Willie Wonka and the Oompa Loompas and did an Oompa Loompa dance.
The office ladies and I were characters from the Fairy Meadows stories.
I saw so many wonderful costumes and have posted pics in the posts below.
The prize winners for various categories have been given a voucher to spend at the Scholastic Book Fair. Yes, breaking news, we'll be having the fair in week 4 of term 4. That's Nov 2 -6th. Watch this space for more news.
Hope you all have a safe and happy two weeks.
