Massive shout out to Simon and the team at Nelson Heat Pumps for installing our new heat pumps in the classrooms. The team were friendly, efficient and flexible during the installation. Thanks team, we'll be nice and toasty this winter.

Tomorrow morning, we will have new heat pumps installed in all four classrooms, this is very exciting for us. So things maybe a bit busier than normal in the carpark and surrounding areas. So please be aware when you are dropping off that parking might be busy. Thanks for all your support

At YKids, we are lucky enough to be able to support our families with Kai Rescue. If anyone is in a position to help out please see the post about the support that is needed to keep this wonderful organisation going
We're facing a funding crisis — and we need your help to keep going.
The reality is hard. Across Aotearoa, charities like ours are feeling the squeeze as funding shrinks and community need grows. We're not alone in this, but right now, we need our own community to show up for us.
Nelson Environment Centre needs to raise $40,000 by end of June to keep the programme running.
Here's how you can help:
💚 Donate — $20 rescues around 20 kg of food. Every dollar keeps the programme running. - www.nec.org.nz/donate
🛍️ Shop at our ReUse Shops — every purchase helps. Income from the shops supports NEC's programmes including Kai Rescue, so shopping second-hand does more than you might think.
🙌 Fundraise — organise a collection or event on our behalf.
🎁 Donate a raffle prize — items or experiences welcome, especially from local businesses.
🤝 Partner with us — businesses and organisations, we'd love to talk.
