Giving Back
A special message to everyone who supported us across January…
THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone who purchased a private lesson over January, aiding us in raising funds to donate to Wildlife Victoria, supporting them in their efforts to recover animals affected by the horrific bush fires over summer. We’re incredibly proud to announce that we managed to raise $9000 (!) across the month. It means so much that clients of a small, regional business can come together and bring about something so wonderful.
