Weekend with Rafi

On Friday we went home with Rafi and had a great time! We even saw a hedgehog! For dinner we have hamburgers and they were delicious!

On Saturday we went swimming and we took Charge and Coco to the park.

On Sunday we went to the shop with Charge and Coco and we have a relaxing afternoon on the deck.

What a great weekend we had with Rafi. Can't wait to go home this weekend with Eliza!

Weekend with Summer!

On Friday we came home with Summer. We went on the tramp, after Summer and her family had built it!

On Saturday we went with Summer's family to look at a house in Oamaru, it's one that needs to be moved on a truck!

On Sunday we went to Summer's Nana's house and when we got home we went for a skate.

We had such a great time with Summer, can't wait to see who we are going home with next....



Here we are having a good ol' skate...




Here are the pics from the weekend (finally!)

So who are Charge & Coco?

Hey guys
I wanted to tell you a bit more about these two, so here we go...

Charge is a happy go lucky Rhino and Coco, is a quirky monkey. They both come from Bangkok, Thailand and are loving living a quiet life in the Junior Room at Karitane School.

They have travelled so far to come and see us and will be staying for the rest of the year. They want to visit everyone in the Junior Room's home and have some adventures with some great Kiwi families.

Here is what they have to say about their time here so far...

Sawatkah (hello) Karitane School!
Well we had such a big trip to get here. We travelled on three planes and those plane rides were long, we were really tired when we got here. Once we got to Mrs Williams house we slept for two days straight! Man did we need the sleep, that place where the bags go in the airplane is SO noisy and there was NO FOOD!
We were so excited to meet the Junior Room that we went to school on the Saturday before school started and decided to stay there for the weekend. It meant that we could find a place to sleep and make the room our home.
Here is a bit about us.
I'm Charge the Rhino. I am 7 years old and I like to run at trees and each grass. I met Coco when I first went to Thailand. He helped me to find a place to live and a school to go to. I'm looking forward to getting to know you and seeing lots of your beautiful country.


Hi there! I'm Coco the Monkey. I am 7 years old too and I love to eat banana's and spend my time swinging in the trees, which is funny because most of the time Charge keeps trying to knock me out of them. I was born in Thailand and am really looking forward getting to know everyone.


Here we are with our favourite special occasion snack. We are hanging out with Mrs Williams in her hotel room while we wait for our flight to New Zealand, we are really excited!

INTRODUCING CHARGE & COCO!

Welcome to Charge & Coco's Blog. This is a special blog created for the Junior Room of Karitane School. Every week our Celebrity of the week will take Charge and Coco home for a special weekend adventure. The children are to write journal entry's for both Saturday and Sunday about what adventures they had with Charge and Coco. Their adventures will be blogged and shared with you. I hope you enjoy our blog!
