Yup that's me looking like a stunned mullet. I am sure it was just a cheap camera cos' I look way better than that. |

The bags contain brand new books from Scholastics, pencils, toys and other goodies donated by businesses. |
Today I met with Belinda, Nicki and Michelle (Erin was unable to be here.) These lovely women have approached businesses and contacted North Island schools to find ways to support our Canterbury Kids.
It was pretty amazing to look inside the boxes from the children at Tauranga Primary School to see what they had given to our children. Their little letters are gorgeous and speak from the heart. The children have an amazing understanding of the difficulty some of us have had coping and how frightening it has been for all of us. Kids can walk a mile in someone else's shoes and I thank their parents and teachers for helping them to appreciate what it is like for us.
Belinda, Nicki, Michelle and Erin you are now officially friends of our school. I am struggling to find the right words to let you know how much this means to our children and to us as a staff. It's not like me to run out of things to say. Thank you. Thank you.
