Week 2: Day 7 Spring HP: Tenpin 🎳🎳🎳🎳

Lets wrap it up for our first out of center trip for week 2: we did Tenpin. Started off with a hiss and a roar. Met our whanau from papamoa as they were heading out when we left for tenpin.

Once we got settled in, the kids were away and going well. Moving like a well oiled machine. Some would say the best center in town hehehe.

We finished and headed back to the center for an afternoon of activities and sushi making to wrap up the day.

Desserts on tomorrow. We are excited!!!

Week 1: Day 5 Spring HP: Spa Tacular🧖🧖‍♀️🧖‍♂️

Kia ora whanau. It wasn’t exactly the spatacular day we had planned but we made the most of our day.

This morning we got stuck into our activities. We made our bath salts and they smell amazing. It’s giving Bedroom diffuser vibes. Smells so good that we may have to do it again next week.

This afternoon was more of a chill arvo as we all feeling the long week and the daylight savings heavily. We did our pizzas and our smoothies which turned out bomb!! Shoutout to Mātua H for making the pizza dough. Chelsea for executing the pizzas and Ali for the great smoothies. It’s not a real pizza if it’s not made with a pizza dough.

Week 1: Day 4 Spring HP: United Cinemas 🍿🎥🎬🎦🎞️

Chuuuuurrr whanau. What a beautiful day to be a beautiful day. This is our day summarised in a few short sentences. We hope you enjoy the photos.

This morning we rounded up and got ready to head out to the movies first thing this morning. Left the center a bit later than usual, that’s because our movie time was smack bang in the middle of our usual time at the park. So we ate up, headed out, got to the movies, loaded up in our seats and began the movie. It was forgotten island. Here’s the quick rundown of the movie:
* Two girls enter a magical island and have to save their friendship before they literally forget each other. Casual Tuesday. Sounds like a night out for some of the parents hehehe.

After our movie we headed to the park for lunch and a run around before heading back to the center. Pretty much our 2nd out of center trip done for the day!!!!’’

Tomorrow we round up our 1st week of the Spring HP in the center. Enjoy the photos.

Week 1: Day 3 Spring HP: VivaFiesta 🌮🇲🇽🌯🫔

Oraaaaleeeeee

As the sun sets on the day, we recap our day with our Mexican Fiesta. This is what’s been happening today. What a day!!!

This morning we got stuck into our arts and crafts activities, our taco station and our nachos. Fun times when it’s food prep whanau. When fun when the kids can do the food prep. That was our morning. This afternoon, we had more fun out of the kitchen and did more hands on, moving around and high energy activities, turning our afternoon into a boogie and our day into night. Hopefully the photos we have today reflect the day we had. We finish the day with a game of master tag. Enjoy the photos whanau 💙

Our movie time tomorrow is 11am. We are watching Forgotten Island. We will be in center before our movie but please make sure your kids come with a packed lunch for a full day.

Week 1: Day 2 Spring HP: Vortex Ninja Park 🥷🎡

We areeee out of the center today whanau and how good. Instead of the usual start time of leaving the centre at 9am. We left a bit later and weren’t in a rush to get to our jump time so we ended up going to the Park first up to have a run around, then have lunch before we set ourselves up to run at Motion Entertainment.

Rain forecasted but it only spat for a short time. Managed to:
- run in the park till we were hungry.
- Lost a phone
- Found a phone
- Found a bike
- Lost the keys
- Met up with pap.
- Have fun

We headed over to Motion after lunch and made the most of our time before heading back to the center.
Shoutout to the staff at Motion for having us on once again!!!

This is our first out of center trip outside of Tauranga and it didn’t disappoint. We will keep it short and sweet whanau so here’s the photos for today. We are back in the center tomorrow for our VivaFiesta.

Week 1: Day 1 Spring HP : Gummylicious 🍭🍬

Gummylicious, the term used to describe our first day of the Spring HP Programme. Kia ora tatou, we are baaaaaack and ready for 10 days of madness before the final term of the year. Our day consisted of:

This morning we got stuck into making our Jelly Cups, our squishys with Ali and Zoe. We trieeeed the slime this morning but boooo they didn’t work. So we had to improvise and continue to push forward with out activities. What was fun was the chance to make the squishys. Shoutout to Zoe for being brave and bold to try and get it done!! We managed to get through as many as we could even if it meant doing it after lunch.

Our afternoon capped off with our Pancakes with Ali in the kitchen (The man is a wiz in the kitchen, such an asset to have on the roster. It’s like discovering LeBron James in his prime. We had a fun afternoon of activities, eating and laughing. We were on to start day 1 of the Holidays.

We are out of center tomorrow whanau with the trip over to Rotorua. We leave the center at 9:20am sharp. Please be there and ready to go with a packed lunch and warm clothes please.
