Our Kindergarten visits Dolamore Park each week with ten of our eldest children to explore and learn in nature. We are grateful to Ritchies whom come out each week to collect us and bring us back to Kindergarten with all of our gear. The bus trip back to Kindergarten is always a fun trip with many stories being shared. The drivers are always very patient with us and helpful in ensuring we all get off safely on our return at Kindergarten. Cara Sharp, Head Teacher, Elsie Street Kindergarten
We have hired Ritchies minivans each marching season over the past 9 years. We thoroughly appreciate having vans always available for our competition trips. They are always clean and Kerrie in the office is awesome to deal with. Thank you so much for everything you do and have done for our team over the years. Toni Grumball, Coach, Hokonui Under 12 Marching team
A huge thank you to you all, Heather took great care of us and we even got her in on one of the photos!
