We hope you are all enjoying the festive season and holiday time with friends and family.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">2017 has been a good year here in Wellington and the recent stretch of spring and summer days of glorious sunshine has been amazing and unheard of for Wellington! (actually all of NZ) \u2013 great for the outdoors but a worry for our water supplies \u2013 we are officially in a drought and it not even the new year yet!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">We started the year off with a fun summer holiday in Waipatiki Beach, just north of Napier in a lovely camp site. It has a small fresh water estuary which the girls loved to play in, great beaches for surf and beautiful bush walks with Nikau palms and other natives..<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">A highlight for Bonnie and the girls was a trip to Disneyworld in Florida in late January, where the girls discovered a love of rollercoasters and other fun rides. It was also a nice opportunity to reunite with family friends and enjoy some warm weather. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">Molly has a good year at Owhiro Bay school \u2013 she is at year 5 and has done well across reading and art. Molly\u2019s passion continues to be horse riding and she is a regular attendee at the pony club in Ohario valley. She has attained a D level certificate for horse care and training and is progressed to jumping. She has a caring nature and loves to spend time taking care of the horses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">Lilly-Anne attended year 4 at school and is continuing to do well in reading and writing and maths. She has discovered a love of science and performing experiment, Much to Bonnie\u2019s dismay she regularly pulls apart the baking drawer with her experiments ;-).Lilly-Anne was successful in representing Owhiro Bay School at cross country running at the Southern Zone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">Rose was at her last year at Owhiro Bay Kindergarten and has shown a keen interest in learning to read and write with a reading buddy and discovering all things fun indoors and outside. Her favourite activity has been drawing and social fun with kindy friends. She has started to learn the piano and will go progress to music lesson next year.<\/span><\/p>\n\r\n    <style>\r\n        #weblizar_2303 .wrgf-header-label {\r\n            color: #FFFFFF
