Staff Movements
After 19 years at The Grange, we are very sad to say goodbye to Stacey. After catching a taxi or 2 buses each way for 19 years, whilst not driving, Stacey is moving to a centre within walking distance to home. Stacey will also be working school friendly hours at her new centre, now that her two boys are in primary school.
We will be having a afternoon tea farewell for Stacey on her last day Friday 22nd July at 3:30pm.
Friendly reminders
With the cold weather now upon us, please don’t forget to bring a warm hat, jacket and gumboots in for your child to wear outside.
St John Ambulance Visit
St John Ambulance came to visit the children during Road Safety Month.

Matariki Celebrations – Stardome Trip Tirama tirama nga whetu.... We had a great time during our recent trip to Stardome, exploring both the Space Gallery and the Space Room- where we partook in a session focussing on 'Matariki and the Stars'. We also had the opportunity to look through the HUGE Zeiss telescope, before watching the 'Magic Sky' feature in the planetarium theatre. This was great way to start our Matariki celebrations within the centre, and was loads of fun- especially when we got to explore the playground after our picnic lunch! Thank you also to all our 'parent helpers' who came along and helped keep our excited children safe and happy during this time- you are fantastic.
