Katie's Birthday Party

Sweet Katie was finally able to celebrate her birthday with a party at the beginning of the school holidays. She invited 10 girls to go to dinner and a movie, then they came home and had cake and presents. Four of the 10 girls spent the night - they stayed up until 3:00 am chatting apparently, Dugald and I slept through it but Meggie next door informed us in the morning. Katie said they had some really meaningful conversations though so she reckoned it was totally worth it. Here are a few snaps from the evening - thank you Meggie for being in charge of the camera!












I also want to brag on Katie - she got Distinction on her ICAS Mathematics test. She scored in the top two percent of Year 6 participants in New Zealand. We are very proud - especially her former math teacher, Daddy. She also got the "Most Improved Player" award for netball at the Primary School Sports Awards. And, lastly, she was chosen to be the head of her house, Innes, for Term 4, a position she really wanted. Woo hoo Katie!
