Our special visitor

Today Holly (Robinson) came to visit us. She was the New Zealand flag bearer at the recent Rio Paralympics games. She competed in the javelin and won a silver medal!  She brought it along for us to look at. She also brought her mascot - Tom. Did you know that if you bought a version of Tom in the shops, his head piece would be green (to represent the rainforests). Holly's was a special version. It was silver, because she was given it when she won a silver medal. If you won bronze, it would be bronze. And gold, would be gold!

Thank you Holly for answering all our questions. You were very inspirational!
