Our oldest son, Jesaiah is really growing up and maturing in his strengths! What a blessing to be able to watch him doing the things he loves! This past term, he was picked as part of a team to enter the regional Tournament of Minds competition. The tournament has many divisions - Jesaiah's team entered the performing arts division. For the last couple of months, they got together weekly to develop their own scripts, props, costumes - in fact, no adult was allowed to help them! They even gave up some of their lunchtime at school and a couple Saturdays to work on the project. But all that hard work paid off - they came in first place for their division! Yeah! They were so excited!
Also, this past term, Jesaiah's artwork was chosen to be displayed at the Wellington Town Hall as part of the ArtSplash competition - this is one of New Zealand's biggest youth arts festival and is divided into performing arts, visual arts, wearable arts, dance and music. Over 100 primary and intermediate schools take part in this 2-week-long competition. Again, well done!
