The Tui room at BestStart Hokowhitu have been busy celebrating the lead up to Christmas. The room elf ‘Fairy’ brings wonder and delight everyday as the pēpē search to find where she is hiding, discovering her in new and exciting places each morning. 

The Christmas elf story has become a favourite in the room with the children asking for it to be read again and again. Taking inspiration from this, Fairy created her own story about how she met the room Atua during her midnight adventures and they gifted her a beautiful korowai. Fairy watches from her space within the room as the children enjoy exploring Christmas themed sensory art experiences or baking yummy Christmas cookies together. 

The pēpē enjoyed a fun Christmas photoshoot and together with their kaiako, gifted their families with beautiful keepsake gifts as reminders of Christmas 2020 for years to come.
