Te Puke September 2024

Daffodil Day in Te Puke

We love to help out our local community.

We went for a big drive up to a farm and picked

daffodils on a local farm for the Cancer Society and

bunched them up in groups of 10

We then went around town to sell them

to our lovely community

We are beyond proud to say we made nearly $300 for the cancer society. We all really enjoyed it and we will definitely do that again next year!

Every year we do an annual production. This year we did a musical show called “The Wild Wild West”. We work hard all year, making costumes and props. It increases our confidence and gives us all an opportunity to do a performance on our own and have the stage independently. Our parents and caregivers love it and support us immensely every year.

 

You can't live in the Bay and not utilise our beautiful beaches.

We visit them often as its our ‘happy place’ where we can experiment sensory experiences, collect treasures for our art projects and embrace the peace and tranquility.

                    Quirks Café 

is now up and running at Greerton on a Friday. 

We have fun while learning new skills! 

Making coffee and hot chocolate is a treat!

Donations welcome! 

  Our Winter wonderland was an amazing day! 

We all worked hard creating decorations!

When it all got set up it was like a magical land!

We all had so much fun dancing and sipping on mocktails!

 We would like to take this opportunity to say a BIG 'Thank You' to 

Pub Charity Limited for our recent iPad purchase ...

Celebrating Matariki Day in Te Puke

We got to celebrate Matariki in Te Puke with all my friends and staff.  I wanted to achieve my goal of organising an event.  I helped make the Matariki tablecloth in Culture Group,  assisted to make the Banana Cake in Cooking Group, made the icing and then decided how I wanted the decorations and seating arrangements arranged. I was so proud of myself….(Hannah)

   

Helping out in the Community

We do voluntary work at the Salvation Army store. Today we sorted out a heap of books and priced them. We really enjoy chatting to the customers and helping out in our local community.

We collect donations and deliver them to our local Animal Rescue Centre in Te Puke. Normally it's towels, blankets and food. 

At least we know the rescue dogs and cats will be warm and dry. (Hannah & Jo)

June 2024 Blog

Here at the Greerton Centre we have been busy exploring the wider community, slipping into 16th Ave Theatre for an exclusive tour for our Drama Group

Exclusive tours of the Tauranga Rescue Helicopter

We enjoyed our adventure at Marshalls Animal Farm, petting so many animals

Checking out the amazing local water park and tropical gardens is always a delight

 

                               

We also get to do veggie planting so our cooking groups have nice fresh veggies straight from the garden

Some of us get to pick the fresh flowers from the gardens here, and make up the posies and deliver them to the Waipuna Hospice for the meal trays
