Girls' School

Dads, daughters, and a dash of creativity

19 September 2024

The Girls' School Father-Daughter event was a lively and memorable morning, drawing over 380 girls and their dads into the gym for some creative fun. Each duo preselected from three hands-on activities: Lego building, decorating ceramic plates and cups, or crafting their own terrarium. The atmosphere was filled with laughter and teamwork as fathers and daughters worked together, creating special moments.

One of the highlights was the fantastic spot prizes, generously donated by Spark Business Hub, Auckland City. Lucky winners walked away with incredible gifts, including an Apple Watch, Xbox, and JBL Party Speaker. Rev. Reuben Hardie’s ‘How Well Do You Know Your Dad/Daughter?’ quiz had the girls reaching skyward, eager to be chosen for a chance at the prizes.

Organised seamlessly by the Girls' School Parents & Friends Committee, the event wrapped up with breakfast, sending the dads off to work and the girls to class, bellies full and smiling. Thank you to the P&F Chair Jess Wahlstrom, and those who gave their time to ensure it was a memorable ‘Father’s Day’ week for our families.
