Kate Murney doesn’t remember anything from the first time she was flown to Christchurch Hospital, but she won’t forget the second time.

The 67-year-old mother of three was rushed to hospital in December 2013 with acute septicemia, a serious blood infection. Her family was told she wasn’t going to make it, but miraculously, she survived.

She returned to Christchurch Hospital on Thursday to visit the new helipad atop the new Hagley Acute Services building and to thank those who saved her life.

Hi, Im Stacey and I am looking for some families to come and join my Home based Montessori Care.
I am fully Early Childhood and Montessori trained, and have been teaching for 15 years. I absolutely adore children of all ages and especially using the Montessori Approach.
I am able to have x4 children in my care, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays 9-3pm.
My environment is calming, beautiful and sunny, with a huge back yard for children to run around in. A sandpit, swing and mud kitchen are underway along with some other fun outside experiences.
I am fun, passionate, enthusiastic and just a big kid who loves to have fun!! I teach children's yoga also on site so will incorporate this into our weekly programme.
Montessori is all about the goal of nurturing each child's natural desire for knowledge, understanding, and respect.
Qualities of the prepared classroom include: structure, order, freedom of movement, and freedom of choice.
Within this structured space, children learn through hands-on experiences. Especially relevant are the beautifully made Montessori learning materials that children work with to make independent learning discoveries.
The children are guided in their learning by the Montessori teachers, who act as the link between the children, and the prepared environment.
The teacher’s role is to prepare the classroom, and observe and guide their students in their learning. As a result, children progress at their own pace, according to their own abilities.
Through work in the Montessori environment, children learn to develop concentration, self-discipline, and a love of learning.

Im open for people to come and have a look at the environment, and get a feel for the space.

Contact me Stacey on 0273875513 or DM on here =)
