Our Volunteer for the month of May, is Rita Hockey.
For eleven years, Rita has been a treasured part of the Garden to Table programme at Dawson Primary School, generously sharing her passion and knowledge of gardening, composting, and plant care. Alongside her whΔnau, she also donates gumboots to keep little feet clean and dry on gardening days. Harvesting potatoes is βlike digging for gold!β according to the kids!
Ritaβs kindness, dedication, and lasting impact on the Dawson Primary School community is priceless.
Thank you Rita for your longstanding support, and we look forward to hosting you at Woodside.
