This year’s Twilight Gala is fast approaching. 

This year with the Gala being on a weeknight, there is going to be great range of food options with the delicious Tag Burger, The Milk Bar, sushi (including gluten free sushi), salads, American hot dogs, pulled pork sandwiches, the huge traditional PTA sausage sizzle, dessert stalls, cake stalls, coffee, candy floss, the list goes on... so please spread the word to family and friends to come and join in for a great afternoon / evening out. El Jammage will be playing some fantastic background music, in between some great auctions that have been kindly donated. This year there are some amazing looking auction prizes from a la-z-boy chair to a trolley full of groceries to large farm packs amongst some of the awesome options. In terms of entertainment for the children, there will be the chairoplane, mini jeeps, swing boat, bouncy castles, horse rides, face painting, bungy run, bumper balls, magic carpet ride and loads of fun games including sandpit digging, the chocolate trailer and toss the toilet paper! Thank you so much to all those families that have returned their mystery bags, raffles and volunteer forms so far. The PTA really appreciate your help. We are still in need of lots more volunteers to help make the event a success and we know this can be a tough ask on a week night, but any help you can provide on the night is VERY much appreciated. Forms are available here if you are able to help or email pta@tauriko.school.nz Thank you for all the support of the PTA this term. The Katrina Friend family photo sessions, the purchasing of Entertainment Books, sausage sizzles, the Math-a-thon and Milo and Marshmallow night…it has been a busy but great term!
