Painting the Fence at Papa O Te Aroha 2018
November 19- 21 saw Room 10 at Papa O Te Aroha for the annual Marae visit. This year's stay was a little longer as it had been decided the class would paint the front fence. Papa O Te Aroha Marae has been a place of special memories for many Room 10 classes over the years, so it was good to be able to give something back to the marae.
Yr's painters and Bunnings Tokoroa kindly donated paint brushes, School kits SVA pack contained a $50 New World voucher that was spent on lollies to provide energy, and with some parent help and the forecast thunderstorms holding off until later in the day we got it done.
Here's the finished results. Papa O Te Aroha's front fence looks great!
