TIPS FOR MAINTAINING YOUR CLEAN CURTAINS

Robert Anderson from

Before re-hanging your clean curtains, we recommend you thoroughly wash the inside of your windows and frames with warm soapy water with a small amount of bleach in to get rid of any mould spores that are present, taking care not to splash on your carpet or other soft furnishings.

Before re-hanging your clean curtains, we recommend you thoroughly wash the inside of your windows and frames with warm soapy water with a small amount of bleach in to get rid of any mould spores that are present, taking care not to splash on your carpet or other soft furnishings.


Mould grows as a result of sun, moisture and dust or dirt so any attempts to minimize these environmental conditions will help.


- Removing the moisture from your windows each morning.
- Curtains can be vacuumed using the round brush attachment to remove dust
- Ensuites can be a major source of moisture in a bedroom, ensure these are well ventilated
- Avoid drying washing inside
- Opening windows for a small amount of time each day to let the moisture out of your home
- Curtains can be spot cleaned using a solution of washing powder and warm water – this will often leave a watermark so spots should be patted dry with a towel, then dried with a hair dryer.

- Please note: “Exit-Mould” & citrus cleaners will most often strip the colour out of your curtain and leave chemicals in the fabric that will cause it to rot

Call us today on 0800 579 0501 to book in for a clean!

Our whànau at Greta Point Active Explorers are always greeted with the smell of amazing cooking each morning.

Yesterday, our tamariki had homemade wholemeal matariki bread with cheesy homemade baked beans.

It smelt and tasted good!

All Jo's cooking meets the guidelines for GOLD healthy heart and her food is a big hit with our whànau, tamariki and staff.

Having a center that provides a full menu service, means less stress for whànau in the mornings (no lunch boxes!) it also means they are confident their tamariki are eating a diet that meets healthy heart guidelines.

It's is something we are very proud of here at Greta point.

Have we all enjoyed this short week??

It feels like the couriers are catching up too!

so while we have had many essential items (cleaning products, food and stationary) it's always a little exciting when new resources turn up too.

Thank you CM Greta!

There are a lot of reasons to dig up a road, unfortunately! Here’s one of the less common belowground infrastructure renewals we do.

Digger Operator Layton is removing an old air valve block on the bulk water main running from Naenae Reservoir. The team put in a new, bigger air valve (replacing the one just visible in the wooden chamber) then constructed a new concrete chamber and manhole cover for better service and maintenance access.
