“Good Morning,  I have just read the article in the Rodney Times about your Banking programme and would like to say how much I admire what you are doing.  I believe that financial management is the key to setting people up for life and giving them “freedom” in so many ways and I just love the way you are teaching your children how to manage this. We see such sad cases in the bank and mostly it is because people have never been taught these skills. What a wonderful idea to pay them a wage and charge them for their resources. Congratulations on a wonderful program and all the effort you obviously put into it I am sure your pupils will be grateful to you for the whole of their lives.

Kind Regards, Aileen Heron
