Awapuni School Gala
This is the season for school galas, when the extra money which a school needs to function properly is raised from the sale of donated goods, competitions, and the like.
Much hard work and preparation is put into these functions by committee-members, teachers, and parents.
At Awapuni School, a feature of the gala was a parade of decorated bicycles and tricycles.

The boys find interest and excitement--and an oc-casional prize--in the good old game of throwing the coin.
The senior decorated bicycle prizewinners were Api Ngata and Elizabeth Simmons.
Mesdames Kenny, Morley and Williams were kept extra busy on the sweet stall.
