“I have four young girls of my own, and I’ve enjoyed a close affiliation with their school having been the Home and School Treasurer for four years. I’ve come to understand the trials, difficulties, and challenges that schools face, and the lack of funds they have to provide the resources they want for their students. That’s where we can really help – stretching that dollar a little bit further, so Kiwi kids can get the best education possible.”
– Ben Duflou - Director, Accounting For Schools

As the colder months settle in, it’s tempting to keep every window shut tight—but fresh air remains one of the most powerful tools we have to reduce the spread of viruses and minimise the risk of mould and fungi developing. Even just a few minutes of ventilation throughout the day can make a big difference. Opening windows and doors—especially during break times or between classes—helps improve air quality and keeps our learning environments healthier for both students and staff. Let’s continue to prioritise wellbeing by keeping our learning spaces fresh and ventilated this winter.
