I WISH I WAS...

On Friday we took part in the "I Wish I Was" Day.
This is a day where we all got dressed up as a book character, a movie character or as a person that we wished we could be right now.
Our contribution for this day was very important as it was our way to support the 'Make a Wish' foundation which grants special wishes to sick children here in New Zealand. 

For more information please follow this link below to see how you could contribute Make a Wish Foundation NZ

Here are some snapshots of how we took part in this event.
        

 
          

          

          

          

          

          



Us as a class...



Here are some of the rest of the school, teachers included.




We raised over $200 for this worthy foundation.

Congratulations to all the students in our school. We are glad we could contribute to this NZ charity of children helping children.
