Lots of positive feedback for the Work Ready WoF, so have made the Parent & Teacher training (for under 8’s) in-line with this and included SPAN.

Parent training is also for potential parents (aged 10-24) to ensure that history does not repeat the battles that youths and rangatahi have had in their early years at school and in life.

Please note, like the ‘mobile dentist’, we are Mobile Dyslexia Solutions.

5 Years ago – WOW
(From Facebook)

So humbled to be asked to do a maths workshop for the Kura (Maori speaking schools). In awe that teaches had to be turned away because there was not even standing room left at my workshop! Even though it was “the graveyard” shift (last session of the 2 day conference). I am blessed. Sooooo living my dream.
