  • WOW December-2016
    ISSUE 50 December 2016 Wakefield School Gala 2016 by Sonia Emerson This year the weather didn’t play ball but despite that, we had a good turnout, and once again we delivered another fantastic community event. As a result of the amazing generosity of all of our supporters, we were able to raise just over $26,000 for Wakefield School which we are so grateful for. These funds will be put to good use to create an awesome obstacle course for the children of Wakefield School and community. This will improve our rich and diverse learning environment and support our children’s health and fitness. In addition, the children will enjoy a fantastic learning opportunity in helping to design and create the obstacle course. The Wakefield School PTA would like to extend a huge thank you to all the families and staff who supported the gala. Thank you to everyone who donated items, sponsored activities, provided prizes and assisted with set up, clean up and on the stalls during the gala. Without all of this support the gala wouldn’t have been possible. Also thank you to everyone who turned out on the night and brought along family, friends and neighbours. There are lots of things that go into making a successful gala, both big and small, and without each and every contribution, the gala would not be as successful as it has been. We were well entertained during the gala by our many talented students in the school kapahaka group, choir, pop group and rock band, with a special appearance by a trio of young student buskers.
