Today was a different kind of Thursday. Soon we were lining up outside Kereru, what was going to happen? As we entered Nevaeh could see the class had been transformed! As soon as the music started the ear protection came off. What a blast! Kokatahi had joined us for a perfomance of the ‘The Grumpiest Child in the World’. Nevaeh was transported into a whole new world for an hour. She sat for the entire performance, tapping her feet, laughing at the jokes, roaring like a lion.
It was lovely to see her engaging in the performance for an extended amount of time and being part of the wider school community. You are awesome and it was lovely to see you engaged and truely enjoying yourself Nevaeh.
Then after a very quick break it was off to RDA. It seems like since forever since you have seen Lucy. However you remembered all your riding skills. After a walk around the arena getting up close and personal with a small rubber duckie, it was off to Prossers Bush. A quick canter across the grass haad a big smile on your face and you were in your happy place. Being under the trees was a great way to avoid the rain shower that came just as we were entering the bush. Ollie was in the lead and we foolwed with others behind him. We meet a dog walker on the track and had to keep our feet in as some of the gaps between the trees were quite narrow.
On arrival back at school Nevaeh wanted to find the performers again. She went back to Piwakawaka, walking through the classroom and then went back to Kereru just to make sure our visitors were not there. You have a great memory Nevaeh.
Thank you for sharing your day with me Nevaeh, I had a blast!
We have been missing the therapist coming to visit so it was nice to see Sam this week, Neveah enjoyed a good play in the library and some speedy running around the school at play time.
