APRIL - CHILDRENS HEALTH MONTH

For the month of April we will be focusing on Childrens Health. Our Pēpi, Tamariki and Rangatahi are all at various important stages of their growth and development. Caring, Nurturing and Supporting them through each phase are vital to their ongoing health.


KIDS COLOURING COMPETITION

KIDS COLOURING COMPETITION WINNERS! - Congratulations to Millie (11yrs), Maia-Rose (7yrs) and Griff (5yrs), the 3 lucky winners of our April Children’s Health month colouring competition. We hope you all have enjoyed spending your vouchers.

Thank you to all the kids who entered the competition. It was great to see so many entries. It was a real struggle to choose the winners, but we loved every moment of it.
