Wow what a fantastic bunch of entries we have had. You are all so clever and creative it has been really difficult to pick the winners of our 'Take Dad to the Opening Match Competition'.

We think our three winners have done a fantastic job and we hope they have heaps of fun at the Opening Match of Rugby World Cup 2011 on 9th September.

So big congratulations to Jayden Ruakere from
New Plymouth, Izaya Apiata from Manurewa, Auckland, and Symone Robson from Invercargill.

We were so impressed with some of the other entries that we decided to choose 17 runners’ up and we are sending them a little something too. So congratulations to Jack Morgan, Savannah Stevens, Sam Mayo, Stefan Stoove, Emily Palmer, Te Anawa Akurangi, Holly McCracken, Israel Walters, Ella Crook, Maia Jackson, Micah Jordi, Isaac Sushames, Jonathan Gous, Stella Clark, Courtney Sanson, Rebecca Rangihuna, and Ella Neighbours. We really hope you all enjoyed dressing up your Dole bananas as much as we did looking at them and choosing the winners. Don't forget you can still see your photos in the Picture Place on the website so tell all your friends to go and have a look and see how clever you are.

Catch you next time
