Last drama show for 2024

I performed in my last play for 2024. I played Santa Claus in our “Witches, Pirates and Santa”. I was so proud of my performance, I worked so hard at every rehearsal so I had every chance of nailing my role of Santa Claus.

Exploring the strand

I spent the morning at the strand. It was great to see the new areas, the new playground that is still being worked on and the hairy Maclary statues that I thought had been taken away for good.

Fernland Spa

I spent the day at the Fernland Spa hot pools today. It was perfectly overcast, a little drizzly, just perfect for a day of soaking. We finished up with a picnic lunch before heading back to work. What an awesome day!

Olympic Day

 Welcome to Wilrose Olympic Day 2024!
It was a day filled with lots of sports, cheering, laughter and most of all fun.
We started with a sack race followed by an obstacle course, egg and spoon race and the gumboot throw. 
Ending it with an award ceremony was the cherry on top. Perfect.

Shopping at Kmart

I did a bit of centre shopping at Kmart. My friend Johnny taught me how to use the price check scanner and the self checkout. I'll definitely be showing off my new skill to mum next time we go to Kmart.

Historic Village

 What a lovely day exploring all that the historic village has to offer. From the amazing art exhibition, to food stalls where I tried an Indian pancake, playing corn hole to feeding and petting lambs! I’d love to go again with mum.

Purple disco

I danced the day away with all of my friends on Friday. We had a purple disco and the room was decorated with cool purple decorations. I wore a purple tie to match the occasion and I looked handsome. The sandwiches were also a big plus!

Mount Maunganui Hot Pools

 I enjoyed a relaxing soak in the hot water at the Mount Maunganui hot pools. It was very quiet there so I had the water slide to myself which was awesome! I got to side down it many times.

Sailability

Another month rolled over means another sailability lesson, Yeeyaah! It was a pretty special day for me, I finally received my sailability tshirt! There were 4 of us that wore them and I must admit we looked pretty snazzy. 
It was a beautiful day out on the water.

Volunteering @ the SPCA Op Shop

My friend Crimson and I went down the 15th Ave SPCA op shop where we volunteered our time. I walked up and down the aisles, tiding up the clothes racks, making sure the clothes were hung on the hangers properly. I tidied up the book and CD section too. I had such a great time, helping people out  when I can always makes me feel happy!

Delivering food to the "Under the Stars" organisation

 This week my Discovery group delivered freshly baked banana cakes to the "Under the Stars" organisation, who provide food for the homeless and people in need. It is a nice act of service that we are paying forward. In the afternoon we went to Anzac park and the Greerton library.

Outing to Greerton shops

We went to Greerton shops today, I enjoyed browsing the op shops and chatting to the staff about potentially volunteering with them. I’d be a great helper. We finished off our outing at the library, listening to a lady play the harp. It was so soothing I could’ve fallen asleep!

Sailability and BBQ

I went sailing today!! I’ve really missed being on the water so it was great to be back in the boat today. While I was sailing in the sun there was a bbq cooking, ready and waiting for us when we got back. I gobbled down my steak sammie and had another haha!

Mauao base walk & hot soak

Oh boy what a big day! I spent the whole day in Mt Maunganui. I walked around the base of the mount, it was hard work but with the encouragement of my friends and a couple of “catch ya breath” stops we did it! After all that cardio it was only fair we enjoyed a muscle relaxing and body recovery hot soak ha ha.
What a fantastic day!

Bird watching

The crew and I headed out to Matua Salt Marsh to do some bird watching. Among the many ducks swimming around in the pond I spotted a grey heron! 

The sun was shining the birds were chirping, it was a great outing.
