Very happy for children to be involved/wear their costumes/be on the float too! Please see Anne Marie if you can help.

Being Sick You might wonder why I haven't been at school? I have been really sick, I wasn't wagging - I was sick!!!! Not vomiting, but coughing. Sneezing and spitting up green stuff. You don't know how much I suffered. Being sick, coughing in the night. Yeah that’s what horrible experience I had to go through. Just because I wasn't at school you probably think I'm lucky staying home but I'm not. You people want to stay home - I do, but not sick!!!! By Raymi, Rm 2. age 9.
