This week was extremely busy especially with Patrick away in Westport working for the end of the week. He arrived home this afternoon and promptly received a phone call from a small business with no lights, and needing to open for evening service.
Our policy is no household or business should ever go without power, lighting or hot water 24/7 so after dropping his bags, and giving everyone including the dogs a quick kiss he was out the door for a few more hours.
Luckily one small takeaway shop was able to open for business!
Remember if its urgent we can help 24/7.

We celebrate your child’s maths and English achievements, big and small. Tutoring at NumberWorks’nWords is based on success. Each child feels more confident about themselves as a learner when they experience success. Tutors provide positive interaction, certificates are awarded and centre-wide celebration is given when students move up a level. You may have been in the centre and heard the clapping and cheering when this happens. It’s so rewarding to see the smiles on the children’s faces and how proud they are of their achievements.
