Making Daffs for Daffodil Day!

Today is the NZ Cancer Society's Daffodil Day. Supporting Daffodil Day is really important, because it raises money for the Cancer Society. This is an organisation that does amazing work helping people and families who are affected by cancer. 

Usually they hold a street appeal - you might remember buying little yellow plastic daffodils to pin onto your T-shirt? But because of Alert Level 4, the Cancer Society can't hold the street appeal. But we can still help! Here is how:

• Make Daffs! I am about to have a go with my tamariki once I have posted this.  I have tried to find the easiest tutorial I could. Don't worry if you don't have yellow and green paper - we don't either, but we are going to use crayons to colour our paper before we cut and fold it.
• Take Photos! We want photos of YOU with daffodils you have made, drawn, or maybe you are lucky enough to have daffodils in your garden. Whaea Loren at the office is putting all the photos onto our school Facebook page, to paint our page yellow and show our support! (Email photos to me or to Loren - tiff@hokitika.school.nz or office@hokitika.school.nz, or send them via our school Facebook page).
• Donate Money! You can talk to your adults about donating money. It's okay if they don't want to, you can still show support by making daffs. We have a school donation page where all the money raised will go to the Cancer Society. Find it here.
