“I found Canterbury Driver Training School on Facebook page and contacted them for my class 2 driver training. I booked with them for the 22nd of August and they were very understanding to make a payment arrangement for since I did not have a full payment ready for the course. After successfully completing the course, they surprised me with a sponsorship for my class 2 course. The instructors are so fun yet professional at the same time. Scott is an incredible instructor he immediately made me feel at ease behind the wheel and His instructions during the practical test were very clear that I didn’t need to ask him for anything else. On the Other hand, Phil was very patient and made the theory lessons so much fun. He has lots of tips, and made sure I was fully ready before my test. Over the 2 day course, Phil gave me the confidence, coaching me in everything that I needed to correct in order to pass. His advice was incredibly helpful in improving my driving skills and preparing me for the practical driving test and I feel like I am a safer driver now.”

“Nigel was fantastic from the moment we walked in, he greeted us as we entered and introduced himself. Very knowledgeable and took his time to give us the best service possible, really went the extra mile. Walked away with exactly what we were after. 10/10 will shop here again”

“Big thanks to Rodney and the team at Tie Up Aviation for such a warm welcome and an awesome first lesson! The whole experience was super professional, I felt really safe the entire time, and the views were just incredible. The aircraft was in great condition and easy to feel comfortable in. Can’t wait to continue my PPL journey with them soon!”

“My daughter had singing lessons with Gina through her primary and secondary school years and really benefitted from the experience. Gina took her through all the singing grade exams, plus theory papers. I really rate Gina highly as a music teacher. She is a kind, patient and warm person with a genuine love of music and vocal performance. She has a real knack for bringing out the best in young people because she is so encouraging and positive. Her end of year concerts are a great way for students to show their progress and these are well-attended and well-run. As a parent, I have appreciated the hard work she put in to make these a success. My daughter is currently studying for a Bachelor of Music degree, majoring in Performance Singing. She could not have got this far without all the years of quality teaching from Gina, who prepared her so well for this phase of life. As a parent, I am very grateful for everything that Gina has done for us and have no hesitation in recommending her to others.”

“Great kindy. The teachers are so kind, patient and so engaging with the kids. My daughter loves it”

“What a amazing kindergarten beautiful homely feel and positive atmosphere my son absolutely loves it and is always engaged in the activities put on each day the teachers are wonderful they are all so supportive and work with family's for what's best for each individual child my son has made lovely connections with each teacher and is flourishing I can't recommend bush street kidsfirst enough”

“Little Peppertree truly feels like a second home for our son. It offers everything you'd hope for in a preschool—small numbers, warm and welcoming spaces, a wide variety of activities, and amazing teachers who clearly love being there just as much as the children do! The transition in was smooth and easy. Each day is filled with fun and meaningful experiences. We couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!”

“Peppertree Preschool is one in a million. The way they have helped my son grow into the little man he is turning into is absolutely astounding. The love and passion these ladies have for their job and every individual is out of this world. We are going to miss you all dearly.”

“A couple of ratings with these folks, one on a pretty complex and rare type. Experience and dedication of instructors evident - thanks partic to CJ. Highly recommend.”

“Both of my daughters (now 6 and 8) are in the Tumbles class, not yet competitive. We've been in the class nearly a year and they have both grown so much -- athletically speaking -- able to kartwheel, handspring, etc -- but also personally -- developing the confidence to perform in front of an audience. The program is very well run, safe and incredible value for the skills and confidence little ones gain. I must also note, the management and coaches are not simply ticking boxes, they are people who really care, understand discipline and hard work, but also know that it has to be fun for younger children to want to be involved and to stay involved -- it's encouraging to see and an encouraging place for young people to be and learn! Wishing the program continued success :)”

“I highly recommend Diamond Lodge. My 9 year old daughter has been attending weekly lessons for the last year and has really developed her confidence and skills with Diamond Lodge while having fun at the same time! Her progress in such a short space of time has been truly remarkable. Credit to Sarah the instructor who is patient and highly skilled. Great for parents like me who don't own a pony as my daughter can now do Pony Club too.”

“As a drummer of 18 years, I approached Chris with the task to, "increase my tool box, and make me an all-round better drummer" - which is exactly what he has been doing. His wealth of experience and knowledge as a drummer, combined with his unique personalable approach to teaching, makes him the ultimate go-to man when it comes to drum tutoring. Not only are the lessons challenging, they're also incredibly enjoyable. The passion I have always had for drums from a very young age has been taken to a whole new level since starting lessons with Chris, and I can honestly say, that I would happily recommend him to anyone of any skill level who is serious about drums.”
