Canvas For The Mac

This week has been a really interesting one for Team Awesome!

The week started off as it usually does with resource making, online parent-carer support and content creating. However, Thursday was a day that we won’t be forgetting in a hurry!

Archie and I were honoured to be asked to attend the gallery viewing of “Canvas For The Mac” in aid of MacMillan Caring Locally. We were able to enjoy viewing an exclusive preview exhibition with a varied selection of unique art pieces.

The event was held at the beautiful Captain’s Club Hotel in Christchurch and we were not only able to see lots of fantastic pieces of art but were also privileged to meet lots of really interesting people. The booklet given to us on our arrival stated that…

“Canvas For The Mac will help raise funds for the Brick-by-Brick Appeal. We are truly grateful to the small ‘Canvas For The Mac’ team who have dedicated so much of their time and efforts to make this project possible.”

We would like to say an ENORMOUS THANK YOU for the privilege of being invited to such an important event and we will be forever grateful that it opened up a conversation with our children about the incredible work that MacMillan Caring Locally do.

I’d like to make a special mention to Harry Redknapp and his lovely wife Sandra. Thank you for taking the time with Archie and I and for giving up a small piece of your evening to tolerate an overexcited me 😂

I’d also like to say a thank you to Reformed Plastics for helping to sponsor the event and to the incredible team that organised this terrific event (I won’t mention your name… but you know who you are! 😘 ).
