Central Kids Selwyn would like to thank our whānau for supporting our kaupapa for KidsCan.

A big shout out to KidsCan for providing fresh, healthy snacks and lunch for tamariki at kindergarten.  Last year, Central Kids Selwyn was chosen to be part of the KidsCan programme where tamariki receive kai, raincoats, shoes and headlice products.  The past two weeks our tamariki have been enjoying trying new and delicious healthy meals five days per week. They are loving the yoghurt and fruit and have been arriving excited to see what is for lunch that day.

Kaiako are noticing tamariki trying new foods as they are seeing their friends eating the same meals.  We are also excited for the arrival of the raincoats and shoes, sharing these with whānau for their tamariki of Selwyn Kindergarten.
