Pyjama Day

10/8/2013

Last Week our school held a Pyjama Day to raise money for children with Cancer. We all came to school wearing our pyjamas. It was really good to be able to just get out of bed in the morning and come straight to school without having to get dressed. It was a very cold day and we weren't sure that we would be able to go outside because it was raining in the morning. Luckily, the rain stopped and we got to go out and do fitness in our pyjamas. At lunch time, the SRC ran some activities for students and their Teddy Bears. We played What's the Time Mr Bear?, Pin the Tail on the Teddy, Teddy's got Talent and many more. Here are some photos from the day.
Did you enjoy wearing your Pyjamas to school? 
What was the best part of the day?
Have you got any other fundraising dress up ideas?

Hi Mrs Cheg,

I really enjoyed the Pyjama Day ,as it was great fun just getting up and not changing!

I loved that we could bring out stuffed toys to school! I really enjoyed having fun with my friends playing pyjama games! That was definitley the highlight of the day!

Maybe we could have a Superhero Dress Up Day? Could you let me know what you think and if it is a good idea?

Excelsior!

Hi Mrs Chegwidden,

I really enjoyed Pyjama Day. It was the day I kept looking forward to since Term 1!

The best part of the day was the lunch time activities with the teddy bears. It was fun, especially because everyone joined in and we were all happy.

There could be Jeans for Genes Day, Crazy Hair Day, Soccer/Football Colours Day or just a dressing up day with a cool theme!

I'm really looking forward to more dressing up days. I can't wait! (:

Hi Mrs Chegwidden

I had alot of fun on pyjama day because the activites were fun and because we got to wear our pyjamas.

The best part of the day were the teddy bear activites because we got to race with them.Other activites were pin the tail on the teddy bear.

How did you feel in your pyjamas? and what did you do when you got home?

I am looking forward for other dressing up days.

Dear Mrs Chegwidden,

I loved pyjama day because we were allowed to bring our teddy bears to school it felt like we were still at home.

wearing pyjamas to school was so mutch fun I didn't need to change in the morning.

Next term we could have a day when we dress up like our favourite super star.

What did you do when you got home?

Hi Jessica,

Although I thoroughly enjoyed wearing my pyjamas, I had to pick my daughter up from Acro which is held at her school hall, so I actually got changed before I went home. It was a bit funny because when I picked her up, I saw all of the girls doing Acro in their onesies, because they also had a pyjama day!

When I got home, I had a shower and put on clean pyjamas.

Sincerely, Mrs Chegwidden

Hi Mrs Chegwidden,

I really enjoyed Pyjama Day because we got to get out of bed not worrying to change.

The best part of the day was when everyone got to bring their teddy's outside at lunch and we had different activites. I really liked having the Teddy's Got Talent!

I think for another good fundrasing we could all dress up in our favourite colours. It would be very cool looking at the whole school in multi colours.

Did you enjoy Pyjama Day?
Do you think there is something that could be better?
What did you do when you got home?

Hi Lauren,

I really enjoyed being at school in my pyjamas, particularly because it was such a cold day. I think next time we could actually have a Teddy Bears Picnic as well as the activities.

When I got one I had a shower and changed into clean pyjamas.

Sincerely,

Mrs Chegwidden

Hi Mrs Cheg,

Thank you for organising Pyjama day because I really enjoyed the activities which realy stood out and also the fact that I got to see what other students wear when they sleep.

The best highlight of the day were definately the Teddy Bear activies because we got to race, read and even enter the talent quest with them!

Did you enjoy the Teddy Bear activies? What was your favourite highlight of the day?

Hi Frank,

I thought pyjama day was fantastic and I thought the teddy bear activities were the best thing. My favourite activities were the running races and Teddy Story Time.

Hi Mrs Chegwidden and Marsden,

I really enjoyed Pyjama Day because, I didn't have to get dressed. I just had to get up and do my usual routine, just without dressing in my school uniform.

My opinion to the best part of the day was the teddy bear race! Technically we are the ones just running, but with our teddy bears. It was still fun watching everyone run and join in!

Unfortunately I do not have any suggestions for any more fundraising dress - up ideas. However, I do have some questions!

Did you join any of the activities? What was your reaction when you were starting the teddy bear activities?

From your (student/classmate), Celine.

Hello Celine,
Unfortunately, I did not join any of the activities because I was filming every activity on the day but I did have a lot of fun seeing that others were having heaps of fun!
Well, I have 10 words to say... or count that as 14 words....
Did you think the day was too rainy and windy?

Hello Mrs Chegwidden and Marsden,
I really enjoyed wearing my pyjamas to school because I didn't have to change when I got out of bed. I think the best part of the day was when I got to run with my teddy.I think we should have a blue clothes day with 1 dollar donation.

Hello Mrs Chegwidden and Marsden,

I didn't enjoy pyjama day. I loved pyjama day! It was fun seeing everyone in their pyjamas!
The best part of the day was all of the activities especially Teddy's got talent!
I think one day we should have an old Hollywood day or what we want to be when we grow up.

Who brought the cutest plush toy? Who was the best dressed in their pyjamas?
