Week 5
GALA TIME AGAIN

In two weeks time we have our Reremoana School Gala. 

As a staff we wanted to get the students more involved in the Gala. 

We decided that we are going to let the students be creative and feel part of the Gala Hype. 

The Year 2 students are going to create a Vegetable creature or/and a miniature garden. 

The Year 3 students are going to create a Vegetable creature or/and a Vaseline Sand Saucer. 

The Thursday (8 March) before the Gala students are going the get the opportunity to make their different creations. On the Friday the creations will be judged and there will be a winner, second place and third place announced on the day of the gala.

Some of the preparation need to happen at home to be able to make the creating day a success.

Each student has to supply everything they will need to make their creature, garden or Sand Saucer.

Please start early to collect these goods so that your child will have everything they need on Thursday the 8th of March.
