Hazelnut and Luna Arrive in New Zealand

The Marvellous Meerkats are taking part in the Travel Buddy Project started by PLC Sydney. A few days ago, they arrived here at Rowandale School. We're posting on their blog HERE (and you can find their blog on the sidebar), but I've copied the posts to our blog as well...

A few days ago, Hazelnut and Luna arrived in New Zealand and decided to visit us here at Rowandale School. They looked exhausted when they came to my door. It must have taken them ages to get all the way from Faraday School in England. They brought a book with them to tell us all about London.


All of the children were very excited to meet our new friends. We made sure that we sat and listened very carefully when they read their story to us.


Later, it was our day to take care of some of the animals that live at our school so we decided to bring the two of them to help us with our work. Our pigs are named Hettie and Percy (but our chickens don't have any names).



We're looking forward to having our two new friends visit us this week. It's Maori Language Week, so hopefully they will go to their next school knowing some new words!

  2. How special to have Hazelnut and Luna travel all the way from England to visit you. Will they be joining us for our special assembly on Friday? Maybe they'll enjoy seeing our kapa haka perform as well as see you and the rest of Rowandale School perform the powhiri to welcome our new teachers and new students to our school.
