This month we’re rolling up our sleeves, putting up our hands, and saying ‘YES’ to giving our time and skills to projects that make Aotearoa a better place to live.

As a mostly volunteer led organisation, our members know first hand the value and impact that a single volunteer can make in our communities. Imagine then how much can be achieved when several volunteers or even an entire street or neighbourhood decide to work together to achieve the same goal!

Whether you plan to coordinate your own volunteer driven activity, take part in one that’s already been setup, participate in National Volunteer Week (16-22 June), or simply show your own volunteers some extra love this month, know that every bit of effort to give back is a priceless investment in all of our futures.

Want to share your thoughts?

Let us know how you’re getting involved this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

A welcoming and supportive school environment

ACG Strathallan

After attending an Open Day at Strathallan, the family were confident they’d found a solution, enrolling their son to start at the school. “I believe ACG Strathallan is really hitting its straps now. The Principal is working hard to build the sporting aspect of the school, and the facilities are fantastic. Some of these other schools are huge, and I think that is a real advantage of Strathallan – it’s smaller and not so overwhelming for a child. They’re not going to get lost here.”

We warmly invite you to visit us at our open day between 9am - 11am on Tuesday, 25 June.
