Go The Chiefs!

What is it about the mighty Waikato? First the Waikato/Bay of Plenty Magic netball team won the overall competition, then our Olympic rowers won Gold (many train at Karapairo) and on Saturday night our Chiefs
played an outstanding game to win the Super 15 Rugby Final.... yahoo!!
We have had lots of fantastic medal winners at kindergarten this past week too, with children being awarded medals for a range of accomplishments and achievements. It is so good to see them attempting challenges and persisting with difficulty when they are learning new skills.
On Friday we invited children to come to kindergarten in their Chiefs gear or colours to support our team. We played the Mooloo song and Alison did some wonderful face painting. Lachlan's dad Michael arrived with some cow bells (I'm not sure if we should thank him for that!) which were, of course very popular. It was a wonderful day, capping off a very exciting week.
