Last Sunday the 6th of May, Apii Potiki turned 5 years old!
We celebrated our big day on Friday 4th with all our friends!
A great big thank you to all our teachers for their skills in face painting, balloon & bubble blowing, and hair dressing:)
One of the highlights of our birthday was the surprise science show arranged by our management team...MEITAKI MAATA MANAGEMENT!
Here, Blair the scientist is showing us how compressed oxygen can make balloons and marshmallows grow!
A drum full of cold, cloud-like smoke filled our room. Blair showed us how to make cloud rings by tapping on his big drum!
Flying toilet paper had our tamariki laughing & shouting, "Again! Again!"
Just like magic! One minute big smoke balls appeared from the hose...and then they disappeared with the touch of a finger..."POP!"
Kai Kai Time!
After all the excitement from Blair's science show, our tamariki had worked up an appetite.
As we headed outside...WOW! What an awesome surprise! Management had another treat for us.
A delicious and colourful spread was waiting to greet all of our hungry puku!
This is definitely one of the longest & calmest kai times we've ever had in the last 5 years!
HAPPY 5TH BIRTHDAY APII POTIKI GLEN INNES!
Meitaki Maata to our Management Team for a wonderful birthday celebration.
A big thank you to all our staff who just keep giving their all... every single day, and thank you to all our families who continue to believe in what we do for their tamariki.
