Market Day...

yesterday was "Market Day" at Waialua Elementary.

Market Day is held a couple of times a year.  Students can earn "micro money"  (fake)

for good behavior, etc during school. They can then use the micro money to play games

or buy donated treats.

 Grade levels, academies and clubs can sell

items as a fund raiser.  In the past 2nd grade has sold; cotton candy, shave ice, nail

painting, etc.  Yesterday they sold pudding cups and musubi rice. Its great because

families are invited, so it's a real carnival going on!

One of the best fund raisers yesterday, was what the 6th grade did...purchase a piece of duct

tape to tape Mr. Moore (the principal) to the wall.  It was great and I'm sure

they made a lot of money!  The line was so long!

I love the look on Reef's face...priceless!

The money made by groups during Market Day is always put to good use.

Buses for field trips have doubled in cost over the last couple of years.

Some groups use the money to help defray the cost of camp, etc.

The kids love Market Day and so the the parents that come.
