A Teacher's Christmas in Greytown New Zealand

Sammo (alias Sally) is a teacher at Greytown School for those who didn't know and in keeping with her tradition her class were treated to a lunch at Greystone, a secret Santa time and an individual book gift plus a specially personalised by name, bookmark made by Sam to encourage her passion for passing on reading skills. On each bookmark were the words - 'Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body.' Joseph Addison.

Following the lunch and presents ceremony at Greystone they all had a swim in the pool close by in Memorial Park on their walk back to school.










Sadie (alias Evan) 'did' the sausages. Picasso and Cleopatra (Mike and Sue's cats) stayed just well enough away to see what was going on without being captured by the 9 year olds.

The photos tell most of the story.
