Friday 19th February, we celebrated art deco at BestStart Havelock North, and a what fun and busy day we all had!  The centre was transformed into a 1930's art deco themed era.  We listened to art deco jazz and swing music, enjoyed a high tea with jam and cream scones, made head fascinators and bow ties, and had soap box derby races.  A real highlight for the children and teachers, though, would have to be having "Vyolet" visit.  Vyolet is a Austin 7, owned by Catherine, who has the art deco costume and fancy dress hire shop across the road from the centre. The children got to get up close and personal with a vintage car from that era, many of who were able to sit in the drivers seat and even beep the horn.  We would like to thank everyone who supported this event, it truly was a fabulous day.
