Past projects
School Disco
We held a school disco at the St John's Ambulance hall in Coopers Beach.
It was a very successful event, the children had a great time and we raised
significant funds to help us to stage our Christmas in the Park event.
A big thanks to all the parents who came along to help on the night.
Bake Days
We have held several bake days. Parents and caregivers from selected classes
contributed baking to be sold at morning tea or lunchtime. These have
been very popular with the children and have been a worthwhile fundraising
activity.
Christmas in the Park
On Saturday 28 November 2009 Mangonui School hosted Christmas
in the Park. Family and friends came along with their picnic blankets
and enjoyed the time together relaxing listening to music, Christmas carols,
stalls and food for sale.
We provided a rock climbing wall, a volcano maze and a Scooby Doo maze which includes a rock wall inside with a big slide as you exit, a bouncy Castle for the little children, entertainment from Belly Dancers to Country singers, Kapa Haka, market stalls, Santa arrived on a Fire Engine and much more.
