LITTLE TRUCKERS’ CLUB

Happy New Year, Little Truckers. I hope you enjoyed your Christmas holidays and are now loving being back at school with all your friends. If you have any stories or photos to share about your adventures, we would love to see them.

HI, LITTLE TRUCKERS!

You may all remember my wee lamb Blue, who joined my family last year. Well, he’s not so little anymore, and he keeps me on my toes. Over Christmas, he managed to break into the section and came inside to investigate the Christmas tree! When I tried to get photos of a painting I completed last month, he decided he wanted to be in it too. He’s a lot of fun but also a lot of mischief.

Congratulations to James Paddison (5), who found the Little Truckers’ Club logo on page 57 of the Dec 2022/Jan 2023 issue. Keep an eye on your mailbox, James. A prize is on its way to you.

Thank you, Jacob Colhorn (12), from Otago, for sending in a photo of the wooden truck you are currently making at school. We are looking forward to seeing the finished project. It’s going to be awesome!

If you would like to see yourself here in Little Truckers’ Club, all you need to do is email your stories, jokes, photos, and/or drawings to me at rochelle@nztrucking.co.nz, including a wee paragraph telling us about them along with your name and age. We love seeing them all!
