As a Ryman Healthcare village, Bert Sutcliffe residents enjoy a fixed base weekly fee for life – guaranteed.*
Judith explains, “For us it was a no brainer, it was the best decision.

Hi neighbours - thousands of school kids will get a free lunch at school, Jacinda Ardern has announced.

Ardern says "children themselves told us during the consultation on the strategy that going to school hungry was a barrier to their learning."
Education spokeswoman Nikki Kaye says the Government hasn't considered that most schools don't have infrastructure for large scale food preparation and storage. She says "this would cost hundreds of millions and take away the autonomy of parents to provide lunch for their children".
What are your thoughts? Do you think this is a fantastic or flawed idea? Would you prefer that schools prepared your child's lunch?

We offer fun, safe and exciting horse riding school holiday programmes that cater for all levels of riders. We will help you develop into the best rider you can be.
Our holiday programmes are a great way to develop riding skills as well as learn all aspects of horsemanship.
Students will find a healthy sense of pride, when they can turn out their ponies ready for a show with plaited tails and, shiny hooves. They will become confident catching and grooming, tacking up and untacking, feeding, cleaning gear and mucking out their stables, what a sense of achievement they will get.
You can bring your own horse, or if you don't have one this programme gives your child/ren their very own pony/horse to care for on their own.
They will take total responsibility for their mount, as well as expanding their knowledge of horses in a family farm environment, where fun safe learning takes priority with our qualified instructors.
