An excellent end-of-year prize giving evening was held last evening. Congratulations to Mr G on his organising skills. The evening started with an International Dinner, with food supplied by the 16 nationalities attending the school. Most enjoyable. This was organised by Alice Wright.
Then the country items, e.g. Phillipines, India, Wales and more!
The prize giving ceremony broken into two parts wth the Active Culture leading the way.
Well done to all the children.
Marty (Mr G) presented Miss B (Rachel) with a beautiful bunch of flowers as she has completed her two years of teaching and is now a qualified teacher.. Miss Baynes (Ruby) has one year to go.
He also touched on the teaching staff and their wonderful abilities.
As it was the final year for Pippa T (a member of the Thwaites family) Mr G had reserved two VIP seats for the grandparents, Tony and Prue. The Thwaites family, like the Olivers, are taking a hiatus from having children at the school just now. I also received a magnificent floral tribute.
Both families have had six generations attending the school.
Thank you to Hororata Primary School and Mr G!
