We too, will open again, and while it may take a while to get back to normal, we can get there together.

"We are now entering a time where families are separated into individual household bubbles and unable to communicate and interact the way they normally do. Our neighbours are the ones who can step up and help."
So time has come to close our doors and programmes, but never fear its all for the good of the neighbourhood. We will see you again when we get cover the curve..........Jill and the KCFT Team....

I am a registered NZ teacher who has been working as a reliever this year, and now with school closures, I am looking for online tutoring work.
I trained as a primary school teacher (completing a Masters of Teaching and Learning with Distinction), but I have also previously tutored high school students in Math and Science (due to my expertise from previously graduating with first-class honours in a Bachelor of Engineering).
So I am available to tutor in all subjects from year 1-9.
and to tutor maths and science for all year levels up to year 13.
For more information,
you can email me on michelledeacon@gmail.com
or txt me on 027 934 8981
Thanks,
Michelle
