On my mind

I participate in this feature which I found here:

 This is a Friday photo feature that anyone with a blog can join. To take part, post a photo on your own blog, write a short caption explaining it, and link it back to here from your blog by saying you're part of "On my mind". Please write a new post, don't link to an older one. When you've done that, come back here and add a comment below, with a link to your blog.
This is on my mind:


In the photo above is one of my students, Bianca. In 2007 she was diagnosed with cancer. She's currently 2 years off treatment. Recently I visited Wellington Hospital with Bianca and her mum where we entertained some of the children.

On Sunday, November 20 I have the wonderful opportunity to be part of the Funrazor for the Child Cancer Foundation that has been organised by Lea. It is being held at Coastlands Mall in Paraparaumu. I will be there with my Picture Book You're Not Eating Me. I will be playing my guitar and singing songs from my C.D with support from some children from Room 1 of Waikanae School. From every sale I will give $5 to the Child Cancer Foundation.  I am really excited about being involved and I know Lea has put in a lot of work organising a fun event.
