Please Vote: Help Me Choose Which Bear Gets A Holiday

I've paid $40 to a tiny school in the middle of the North Island which is raising money for new computers by offering holidays to teddy bears.

I like the idea of one of my bears getting out to see the countryside, trouble is, I can't decide which one should go.

The bears and I agree that it probably should be one of my 'foreign' bears, so that they see a bit more of New Zealand. I've narrowed it down a bit to the six here.

Can you please pick which one you think would benefit the most from a wee break?

Thanks,

Leigh & the Bears

This is Victor, my well travelled friend Chris got him for me in South Africa. Victor would sort out all the trouble-maker bears on the trip.

This is Fao. My lovely friend Janelle got him for me in New York, at the famous toy shop FAO Schwarz. I don't really think he should go, he's a bit special.

This is Hugh, from the show 'Boy from Oz'. I got him in Sydney. He's very light on his feet and quite a cutie.


This is Domi, from Sydney. She's a bit naughty and likes wearing leather. Might not be appropriate for a primary school visit.


This is Ping Pong, another lovely bear brought home to NZ by Chris, from the Beijing Olympics. The only panda in this line-up.

And this is Will Sands, the convict bear from Melbourne Gaol - another contribution to the collection from Janelle.  Will could use a holiday.

Which one?
