Day 100: Raindrop Run

Due to the rain last night, all of the leaves around my classroom were silvered with little raindrops this morning. I found this lovely broad leaf with a cute little line of drops in the middle of it and thought that it might make a good photo.

Day 99: Front Yard

The weather wasn't fantastic this weekend, so gorgeous photos of the view from my sister's house just weren't going to be taken. However, it did pick up just before I left and so I got this photo of their front garden.

Day 98: Shine A Light

I am a day late in posting this and I totally missed Saturday, but I've been away for the weekend and so am going to post this belatedly and then post another one for today. Charli and Andy got a new lampshade for their lounge a while ago, and while it took me a little while to get used to. I think it's fab.

Day 95: Purple Puletasi

We has a costume day today in the juniors. It was fantastic! All of the children came dressed up in lots of different costumes. One of my girls came in a puletasi (a traditional Samoan dress) and I thought that the fabric was just lovely. The colours were gorgeous and the pattern so pretty. So I thought that I'd use it for my blog today. What do you think?

Day 94: A Mantis Meal

Proof that you should never go anywhere without some form of camera. I was on playground duty and a group of squealing children caught my attention. They had found a preying mantis in the lavender. Upon further investigation, we found about 5 of them. This one had caught a bee for it's lunch. The children were really excited. And so was I!

Day 93: Tree Tile

I got this lovely red and turquoise tile at the Morris and James Pottery near Matakana. You can't really see the colours, so I may have to take another just to show them off. But I quite liked this close up.
