Together, the group worked through an impressive list of jobs, and nothing was too much trouble for this fantastic team. A special challenge was set to tackle the asparagus fern, and we're happy to report it didn't stand a chance!

A huge thank you to our parents and tamariki who braved the cold, sometimes sunny winter day to join the holiday working bee. We are incredibly grateful for the time, energy, and enthusiasm you brought to the day.

A very special thank you to Vicki Moffat for organising the event. Your planning and coordination made the day possible, and we truly appreciate all your mahi.

A special shout-out also to former TPS students Patrick, James, and Cedar for giving back to your old school. It was wonderful to see you guys and have your help. To Stephen thank you for all the mahi before, during and afterwards!

Thank you also to Terri, Amber, and Katie for giving up a day of your school holidays to come along and help, it was greatly appreciated.

We hope you're all enjoying a well-earned rest today. Thank you all for being such a valued part of our school whānau. Days like these remind us what can be achieved when we come together as a community.
