Gauchito
Hello! We are Gauchito class and are in Year 5 and 6. Our teacher is Miss Dawe and our teaching assistant is Mr Bamford.
We are los Gauchitos. Gauchito was the mascot for the 1978 World Cup in Argentina. He dressed as a gaucho (an Argentine cowboy) and was portrayed as an enthusiastic young boy, wearing the hosts’ iconic kit. His hat carried the words ‘ARGENTINA 78’ and he wore a handkerchief and carried a whip; typical gaucho symbols.
