Magnificent Tivaevae Completed

We are all very proud of Hazel who has worked so hard to complete her own Tivaevae.
Hazel decided to make her own quilt after reading and researching about Pacific Tivaevae.
She began by sketching tropical leaves and flowers, which were then used for her quilt design. After the fabric was cut and sewn onto the background Hazel persevered to hand stitch details and then to sew on a border using the sewing machine.

What a fantastic achievement for a seven year old! Well done Hazel!

A Surprise Visitor



What a wonderful surprise we had this morning when Ronald McDonald came to visit!
He told a story that helped us remember to 'STOP, LOOK and LISTEN', before we cross the road.
Ronald reminded us to keep safe by wearing our helmets when riding our bikes and scooters.
We loved joining in when Roald sang 'Make it Click", the song that helps us use seat belts in the car to keep ourselves safe.
