🌿Holiday Programme x Activities Programme🌿
Which one will give your children a real break and the chance to enjoy themselves?
The holiday break is an essential time for children to recharge and take a mental break from the daily routine of schoolwork and busy daily agendas. It gives them the chance to relax, unwind, and 'choose' to engage in activities that they like.
When a 'holiday' break is respected and valued as its meaning, it helps children develop new skills and interests. They may have time and space to explore or try new activities that they wouldn't have had time for during the school year. This exploration can lead to developing new skills and interests + supporting their personal growth and well-being.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
