Hi Guys
Hello to you both, sounds like you are having an awesome time. Winter has set in now, we are having quite a few frosts. Good to see the sun in the afternoons though. We are having a staff night out this Saturday. Going to the Lone Star for a meal. It has been renovated so looking forward to seeing what it is like. Sting Netball fever is again on. We had a very tight match against the Bay of Plenty Magic last Friday night here at the Stadium to earn the right to play against the Northern Force in Auckland this week for the final. It was great that they won because it was the very last game that sting as they are now will play at the stadium, because of the aussies pushing their way into the competition next year. So heres hoping they can beat the Force. Will be interesting because they beat us the week before. Davu did a big shoulder charge on Ardine Wilson that caused a huge fuss. Sent her flying into the advertising boards. She should of been sent off!!!!! Revenge here we come. GO STING. Anyway theres the All Blacks to watch at the weekend as well. Might just stay up all night on Saturday night perhaps!!!!! Thanks for the blogs, it is interesting to read what you have been doing. Take care until next time. Cheers, Mary and all the staff at Tisbury School
