A wonderful day at Takitumu school

We had a wonderful day at Takitumu school. We were greeted with many “hellos” and “good mornings” as we made our way off the bus. All of us spent time reading with the grades five and six while Jack spent time in his class. When we were done with the older children, we moved on to the younger classes. During lunch we had fun playing whiffle ball, frisbee, and netball as well as tag. It seems we have all gotten into a routine. I was able to read to Jack’s class as well as play a few games. A highlight of my day is putting the toothpaste on the children’s toothbrushes after lunch. After school we headed to town and much to our delight we had our favorite bus driver who has entertained us with his singing and jokes. We had an enjoyable time at Trader Jack’s while Terry had some alone time in town. In the evening we spent time at the WhaleResearchCenter with Nan Hauser. It was a great experience. After we had a nice dinner at Boogies where we spent some more time with Nan/Debbie and one of Nan’s interns. Overall, it was a great day and I can’t believe tomorrow is Thursday and our trip is almost over!
