I am deeply grateful to all our parents and children for being on board with us for our project, and a particular thanks to those who believed in us back in 2017 before we had even built the cabin. The team has gone from strength to strength and our diversity amongst out team members reflects our multicultural and diverse mindset that we which to instill with all our children."
