Christmas Parade

 On Friday evening we were in the Paihia Christmas Parade. This year the theme was "under the canopy".

Te Awa were Tui. Thank you to Suzi and Harmony for making our costumes. Thank you to Mrs Smith and her amazing crew of parent helpers for making an amazing float. Thank you to Carters for lending us your truck and your driver. We all had lots of fun.

Lily-Belle tried on her costume during the day to see if it looked good.

A very big "Thank you" to Pauline Fox for making delicious gingerbread men for us all. Reti liked his.

Christmas Tree

 We have been given a beautiful Christmas tree ("thank you Charlie Witts!"). We have been making decorations for our tree and singing Christmas songs.

Aotearoa Christmas  Our favourite Christmas song.

Athletics Day (special bus driver)
