This week, members visited Wairau Valley Special School, where Principal Natalie Todd proudly showed us the completed hydrotherapy pool and multipurpose complex. The pool is awaiting its final Council Code of Compliance Certificate but will soon be in full use, with four physiotherapists ready to provide hydrotherapy for students. The evening was also an opportunity for Natalie and the school to thank Rotary for its longstanding support, which began with the former Rotary Club of Milford in the late 1990s and continues through North Shore Rotary today. Natalie expressed her immense pride that the new facility stands completed and debt-free. Natalie also acknowledged that the specialist equipment funded by Rotary makes a tremendous difference for the children. She warmly thanked members for helping turn the school’s vision into reality and invited us to return anytime to see the students enjoying this wonderful new facility.
