Room 19 Adopted an Elephant!

On Tuesday we held our elephant market to raise money to adopt a Sumatran elephant. We baked and baked and baked (with some help from lots of parents donating ingredients and their time), made lemonade, busked, and sold some gorgeous elephant key rings, made and donated by one of our lovely Mums. We want to thank everyone who came and bought things at our market. We made enough money to adopt Bona, a four year old orphan elephant, and have some money left over to donate to another wonderful cause, which we will tell you about soon. We learnt how to do a lot of things so we could run our market, and we think all our hard work was worth it! Here are some photos of the day.


It was hard work squeezing all the lemons for the lemonade!

Having fun icing the biscuits!

All the elephant helper hats lined up ready to go.
