We had a very busy and exciting day in Pikopiko today. First off this morning we had a special session to welcome some of our new friends who will be joining us on the first day of next year. They came along to visit Pikopiko and try some activities and meet some of their classmates. They all did some lovely craft and had a fun time together. Thanks for coming we loved getting to know you all and will see you again next Thursday!
The bigger kids got to have a fun morning as well, they all joined up with Kowhai and did some outdoor stations and had a great time. There was the parachute, some skipping ropes, balls and frisbees.
After lunch we had a very exciting surprise! As part of our warm up to Pet Day next Tuesday we had some special visitors. Margaret and Jan from the Canterbury Donkey Rehoming Centre brought down two lovely donkeys Tam and Periwinkle to visit the junior children. They were very cute and friendly! We learnt that they like to eat hay and straw, they need company to be happy and they love children :) We got to have a pat and it was great to learn more about these gorgeous creatures. Thank you so much for the visit!
Also this afternoon we had the very exciting job of undoing our tie dyed shirts...and they worked brilliantly! It was awesome to see the amazing patterns that have turned out and the colours look fantastic.
Finally we had a chance to share in a yummy treat at the end of the day as we celebrated our friend Zara's birthday and first day in Pikopiko :) It is great to have you join us Zara, thank you for the cake!
What a day! Don't forget our disco tomorrow, see the post below :)
Wow Pikopiko what a busy day you all have had. The tie dyed t'shirts look awesome. Have a great time at your disco.
