Our cookie drop offs to neighbouring houses not only encouraged our tamariki to see that giving is better than receiving, our walk also enabled us to introduce ourselves to people who live in the surroundings of our Apii.
We met a little boy named Sione, and his mum Mel who live directly next door to us. We also met Gloria, Terina (Hosea's mum), and Lua who live across the road. We ended our walk at Glen Innes Primary School, where we met Christine and Nora. When tamariki presented our neighbours with bags of cookies, our neighbours were quite surprised and very grateful.
MEITAKI MAATA to all our whanau, staff, and tamariki for taking the time to get involved. With your help, our tamariki are developing a sense of compassion (Wellbeing), and community awareness (Belonging).
