The Big Slurp

Cow joke: A lady from the city and her traveling companion were riding the train through Waikato when she noticed some cows. "What a cute bunch of cows!" she remarked. "Not a bunch, herd", her friend replied. "Heard of what?" "Herd of cows." "Of course I've heard of cows." "No, a cow herd." "What do I care what a cow heard. I have no secrets to keep from a cow!" 

As a celebration of  World School Milk Day (did you know 65 million children have milk in schools each day) we decided to enjoy drinking our daily carton of Fonterra milk outside in the sun on the steps of the library. We put on our cow masks and gave thanks to all the cows in the Waikato who had made our daily milk drinking possible.

Thank you Daisy, Darcy, Mertle, Mabel, Clancy, Nancy, Mavis, Mary-lee, Bella, Bethany and Rosie. Unfortunately there are just too many of you to mention individually, but you know who you are!
