Save the big news for last Cheryl...............keeps them guessing!
We are proud to welcome Denise Henley to our team.  Denise is well known in the Westport and Buller Education community most recently through her work at the Buller Community Development Company.  Denise began working with us in early May and has been busy setting up the Westport office, supporting the classes in Karamea and organising to run a group in Ngakawau - to help get that waiting list down a tad. 
Denise started her first two groups together in Ngakawau, the 9 (we have space for one more at Ngakawau, if you want to get there - get in on or before the 19 June) participants are meeting in two groups twice per week to get through their Computers in Homes course before the end of June.  That will then complete our target number of 50 for the year.
By the time the new term gets underway in mid-July, we hope to have courses running, one of Computers in Homes and one of Stepping Up running happily in Westport like it had never been away!
Keep an eye on the Westport News over the next few weeks, we haven't told them yet but we're intending to launch the new training venue with an open day for people to call in, have a cup of tea and a cake and generally have a look around.
Denise will be contacting our waiting listed families and inviting them to come along and we really need to make some noise about thanking the Westport community for all their help and support and encouragement in getting us settled into our new space and ready to go.
