On Monday morning the children arrived back at Kindy to find that they were not in fact at Kindy - they were in the Kingdom of Far Far Away! At Monday Morning Meeting the children heard that the King and Queen of Far Far Away were not at the Castle - they had gone on the back of a friendly dragon to visit friends - leaving the Kingdom without a Ruler! Gasps filled the mat - who would take over the Reins? We continued with the story...The sword would chose a temporary King and Queen! On Tuesday the sword chose King Dante and Queen Tara who were distinguished by their royal crowns for the day, Thursday was Elora and Max, and Friday Elsie and Quilan. Continuing on from naming the new royals, the group discussed protecting the castle with brave Knights. Having already made our swords we talked about incorporating Shields and how these were used to protect our body and heart. We also went on to discover that Shields are unique in their design, often including a Family Crest or something unique to the individual behind it. Thank you to the families who researched at home and found out information on their Family Name or Family Crest - fabulous!

Royal enthusiasts hoping to bag the best seats in the house when the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge visit Dunedin's Forsyth Barr Stadium may be in luck.
The public are being invited to apply for 4000 "premium" seats to the Regal Rugby Fun Day on April 13 held in honour of the royal couple's visit.
Organisers say the event is free to the public, however, those hoping to sit within mere metres of the Duke and Duchess will need to apply for a premium ticket.
Dunedin Mayor Dave Cull says it's an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"For most people this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the Duke and Duchess," he says.
"We are very fortunate they are coming to our city and I'm sure their visit will be a memorable one."
The three-hour event will see local rugby teams compete in a mini-tournament, as well as performances from local groups.
All Blacks Richie McCaw, Aaron Smith and Ben Smith, as well as former All Black and Highlander Brad Thorn, will also be on hand to show off their sporting expertise.
The Royal couple are also expected to attend a service at The Octagon during their time in Dunedin before flying to Queenstown.
