June Update

 

This has been a very busy and exciting month. I have been out and about travelling to Farmers at Tauriko, visiting the Rose Gardens, the Waikareo Walkway and a look around the Toi O Homai campus.  We had an amazing Masquerade ball. It was a very special day with the girls wearing their pretty ball gowns and the men in suits and ties. We all wore a mask. Some were made and others were brought. They all looked amazing. We had a DJ called Mark who came dressed in the theme and a mystery quest arrived and we had to guess who it was. Surprise! It was Cassie who was an ex-staff member. We had a mocktail which was coloured blue. On my I Gaze computer I have been looking up Taylor Swift, Nursery Rhymes and animals on the farm.  My music sessions are always fun. We explored music from the nineties, reggae and we all shared our favourite songs.  I enjoyed dressing a teddy bear, choosing pretty fabrics and playing with paper dolls, attaching their different clothes. In our girl’s group I had my hair curled, made bath bombs and made a keychain and  I always enjoyed getting out of my chair and having massages. In Abilities unleashed I explored different instruments like the banjo, trumpet and pocket trumpet. We have been making stars with old CDs and other Matariki art for the up and coming Matariki Weekend.
