Today was Nana's last day at Papatoetoe East School. She is flying back to Room 8 in Springston, Christchurch tomorrow. So A3 and A4 decided to have a farewell party for Nanas. Here is a video of the party!
Here are some stories that Alofa, Rani and Sen Nay Pow wrote about Nanas leaving.
What amazing fun you have had with Nanas. He now has so many new friends - I'm sure he will miss you too. Great stories! Are you excited about Wally coming home? He will have so many adventures to share.

I am going to miss you guys so much! I had a great party. My favourite part was eating the banana split. What was your favourite part?
ReplyDeleteWow! What a fabulous farewell for Nanas!
ReplyDeleteWally was sad to leave his new friends in Christchurch but is excited to see you all again.
He gave each Room 8 kid a kiss as they left school on Friday afternoon.
He got lots of hugs and kisses too.
We hope you like reading the stories children wrote when they took Wally home for the night.

Nanas really liked the banana split and she was having fun with Eli on the tug of war.
ReplyDeleteHi Room A4,

Hi Room 8
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comments. We had so much fun at the farewell party. We had a lot of fun racing Jack, but our favourite game was the tug of war. We hope Nanas gets back to you safely.
Eli, when the boys won! I saw a lot of girls on your team and they looked pretty strong to me.
