Relay For Life

I am taking part in the Christchurch Relay For Life on 22nd March. Three of my friends are currently being treated for Cancer. There is a collection bucket on my desk. Any donations would be very greatly received. Relay For Life is an inspiring community event that gives everyone a chance to celebrate cancer survivors and caregivers; remember loved ones lost to cancer; and fight back by raising awareness and funds to support the work of the Cancer Society. Team members walk and jog through the night, symbolising the fact that cancer never sleeps. You can also donate on the website: http://www.relayforlife.org.nz. Click on Donate, then Team Kidney, then you can search for my name. – Thanks so much – Antonia ☺

Maths Buddies

Each pair of Maths buddies had fun adding up the numbers on two dice. The children were fantastic at taking turns as well as doing amazing addition!

Brave Khyla!

Poor Khyla spent a night in hospital after having surgery on her arm. What a brave girl. Khyla told us all about her experience. She showed us her X-Ray, special protective clothes from surgery and her scented breathing mask. Khyla has been well looked after today by her lovely Room 14 friends.
