Tainui and Melissa's TIME TO SHINE!

Tainui is a prop in the Canterbury Bulls and Papanui Tigers League Teams.  What a star!  He earned the Tiger's Player of the Year award in 2015.  Tainui is working towards being a junior All Black when he is 16.

Melissa showed us her box of special memories from when she was a baby.  She showed us the outfit she left hospital in, her first shoes, a picture of her handprints and footprints at 4 months, some art, and many other treasures from her life.  Thanks for sharing, Melissa.
