Newsletter March 2015

We have been busy here at TCU Central, registering new schools and vali-

dating new learning destinations—so a BIG warm CU welcome to everybody!

We hope you are enjoying the fact that winter is nearly over, and spring is

just around the corner! Lets celebrate the longer days by finding lots more

activities and events to get involved in.

Did you find any new activities that you love doing last month?

Write in and tell us! We love to hear about your new interests and

about what you have been doing, and if we hear from you, you may

feature in next months newsletter!

Spaces still available, so book on by emailing Linda Barretto at:
