Counting down the days

Only a few days left till we open the new Youth Space.  



Excitement is building as as builders race to finish by the Friday deadline and tech people rush in with computers and large screens.  At the moment it seems chaos reigns but it will be settled by Saturday.  Join us for the party!



Work continues in the Education space with a Tea/coffee making area almost finished apart from the walls.



Planting began today for the Chinese Garden with lovely bamboo being placed in strategic areas to enhance the space.  The bamboo is called fairy bamboo and is the non-spreading variety!

Now for the next stage.....





New carpet has been laid in the same colours as the main Te Takere area.











Frantic unpacking of equipment to meet the deadline of the 1st December and finishing off painting the former bright green columns to a lovely shade of blue.






  The new content creation room being soundproofed ready for installation of equipment.



The former children's library is transforming into the staff offices. On the top floor glass walls have been put in to sound proof the soon to be office areas.



The Chinese Garden with our beautiful dragon installed waits for the planting to enhance the area.
