Goodbye Lillian

Dear Pupuke Parents

We are sad to say we are losing Lillian! She is off to China with her daughter for an extended holiday and will be gone for the next two months. Lillian will be finishing at the centre on Friday, 1st of July, 2011.

We are currently interviewing potential teachers and will let you know as soon as a replacement is found.

We wish Lillian and her family all the best for the future.

Kind regards
Shona Hewitt
Centre Manager
