World Teachers' Day Saturday 29th October Town Basin Whangarei

While the weather was less than 'the winterless north' at first, a great day was had by all.  Thanks to Frances Nelson for speaking.  You are an inspiration!  It was also great to hear from the Support Staff team, lead by Dianna Boyle. Thanks must also go to Julie Findlay for her ECE input.  Then there were wonderful performances by children from Manaia View School, Saint Francis Xavier Catholic School, Hora Hora School, Kamo Intermediate and Wellsford School. What class acts!  Children were so happy to receive balloons too!  Thanks also to the fantastic Tai Tokerau Area Council representatives for there involvement in the day! The sausages tasted delicious!  The face painting girls were wonderful!  Regina thanks for the shopping.  Thanks to Desirei and her boys for sausage cooking!  Thanks to Pat Newman for the sound system!   It was also great to have so many travel up from Auckland to take part in our event.  Particular thanks to Tony Dunn and Peter for putting up the gazebos with Nigel Collyer and Tye.   What an absolutely fabulous experience and see you all again next year!
