Club members also ran a Wobbly Wheels fun event for children and a second hand book stall for their parents.
Net proceeds from the day are shared with the school.


As the first team to start in the season, they had some cold weather to cope with and plenty of snowy mountain views.
But the mission was accomplished and great comradeship enjoyed by all.

Top Schools is a fun sports day run by Rotary Club of Auckland East for primary school students in the Eastern Suburbs of Auckland. It is open in two grades for teams comprising years 3 and 4 students, or years 5 and 6 students.
The event is normally run at Churchill Park School St. Heliers in March each year.
The teams must compete in a number of fun events including a slippery slide, gumboot throw, mine field, ski run, sponge fun, newspaper delivery complete with sleds, and the wobbly wheels waggons (shown). The day starts with a grand parade led by Harold the Giraffe, and teams compete in the timed events to obtain the highest score for their grade.
Mums and dads are all in attendance to cheer the teams on and at the end of the day all participants gain a certificate of attainment.
A great day out and real team work opportunity for the children participating.
Auckland East Rotary has an active commitment to the Rotary New Zealand Emergency Response Kits programme. The Emergency Response Kits contain essential items to enable Pacific Island families to get re-established after a severe weather event which has damaged homes. Included in the kits are such key items as tarpaulins, digging tools, cooking items and much more.
