On Friday the 11th of March there was a mufti day to raise money, and collect food for the refugees of Christchurch city. They have lost so much due to the 6.3 Earthquake. Everybody came in Red and Black mufti and brought either:
1. a gold coin donation
2. a non perishable food item (canned food)
3. old school uniform for the city children to use while at our school.
The organisers for this day were
Deena, Caitlin and Charlotte K-S 6B6
Elizabeth 6B3
We were quite impressed when we heard how much we had raised. We raised $852.60.
Mrs Stewart got a photo of us all after assembly and we all looked great in our red and black mufti.
We had lots of canned food and money to give and it was great to have a mufti day to help out.
It was a lovely day and we had great fun. On Friday the 18th of March we have the day off as there is going to be a ceremony held in town to remember those who have passed away in the 6.3 earthquake.
I'm pleased that you enjoyed the mufti day. It was a good idea that the senior girls had. I must agree that we did look cool in our red and black, although my jersey was just a little too big for me!!! I'll never be an All Black!! Mr M.
