Today we put our shoes on and went to Miss Rae's car and got out the boxes of books. We made them into a big pile, a mountain of books. The books were really heavy. After that we counted the books in tens until we all had a pile of 40. Then we counted the number of people and multiplied that by 40 to see how many books we had. We have the grand total of 962 books!!!!! WOW! Thank you to all of the UHPS community that sent in books. Thank you to Marion Stewart from Pearson, Borders Albany, Whitcoulls Albany and Miss Rae's friend Barb. Special thanks to Mr Valentine-Burt who gave us hundreds of books. Mr V-B now sells books online so he donated us children's books. Thanks also to teachers who gave us teaching resources. We hope to deliver them tomorrow to Mangere East Primary.
Wow! Mr V-B gave us a lot of books!!!!!
