Friday 5 April we wore our gumboots to school to recognise and support Mike King’s goal of raising $2 million dollars to ensure NZ can provide free counselling to any kid in need. He says, “Depression is liking walking in mud everyday.” He identified wearing gumboots for a day was a way of illustrating the extra load that people with depression have to cope with.
Rapaura School students and staff brought along a gold coin and raised $155.
We also joined together for a gumboot throwing competition and a whole school photo.
