Christmas Party

  Our Wilrose centre celebrated our 2022 Christmas party with a disco day and pizza and Ice cream for lunch. We all had so much fun.

Ukulele show

We had a ukelele band come to the centre this week. I love singing along to all the songs that they played. I even got up and danced with my friend some some of them. It was great.

Soccer

 We played soccer this week in sports! I had a lot of fun kicking the ball around and practicing my dribbling skills

Centre shopping

 It was great finding all the things in on our list with centre shopping this week. I also went and got some special things for our Christmas party. I love helping to do centre shopping. 

Foodbank

 I went and caught up with my friends down at Foodbank to do some volunteering. I got 3 boxes of toilet rolls and soap made up. It was good to see some of the other volunteers I haven’t seen for awhile. 

Art tour

 Went for a walk around the historic village and found some really cool art! They were so great I got pictures with them and my friends. One of my favourites was one with a spider!

Fishing at the river

 It was good getting out in the nice weather to do some fishing. We went and tried our luck the Wairoa river. I enjoyed spending the morning with my friends.

 I love catching up with our friends from Fraser Manor. We did a dance for Octoberfest and played some games of Bingo together. 

Picking strawberry’s & flowers

 I went a helped to pick some yummy fresh strawberry’s and some pretty flowers for activities back at the centre. The strawberry’s were used to put on pikelets and flower petals were used to pretty pictures with them. 

Sports ~ Cricket

This week our sports group went to Memorial Park. I had fun playing cricket with my friends. 

Connect 20

 It was good going to socialise at connect 20 this week at the citizens club with my friends. I had a nice cold drink and ran into my old friend jack who use to come to Arohanui and it was nice to catch up with him. 

Spider discovery

 This week in discovery I loved learning bout some different types of spiders! Then I did a science experiment to see what it’s like for a spider to walk in it’s web and worked on my spider book.

Laughing Yoga

 Ha ha ha ha we laughed and we laughed at laughing yoga.

Collecting Manuka Seeds

 I went for a walk at Gordon Carmichael Reserve. I spotted Manuka plants and collected the seed pods to take back to the centre. They have heaps of red seeds in them and when they open we can sow them and grow our own.

Cafe visit

 I had a great morning visiting the cafe in McClarens Falls Patk. I had a cheesecake with chocolate on top and a drink and we chatted to each other and had a look at the Visitors Centre. Yum yum!
