Eggtastic Fun

This afternoon the whole school joined together for our Easter Bonnet Parade and the result of our Decorated Egg Competition.  Once again the competition was fierce as there were so many outstanding Easter bonnets and terrifically decorated eggs.  Our judges had a real challenge on their hands.  Here is a slide show of the wonderful entries for our Egg Competition.

Many thanks to our team of parent helpers who joined us today for our Garden Day.  You all worked extremely hard and made a real difference to our school grounds.  We can now look forward to cultivating the plants and the vegetables that we have planted.  Today was also a day to enjoy the school grounds with a Wear Wellie Walk for Pr.1 – 3 and Fun Run for Pr. 4 – 7.  Everyone also enjoyed an Egg Hunt as part of the festivities.  Many thanks to our committees for organising these events.
