To the tremendous staff at Piccolo, What a year! Its been amazing for us to see the big changes in Lexi since starting Piccolo. I cannot speak highly enough of all the staff. What has impressed me the most is that you all take such an interest in each individual child and the play environment is always so exciting.

Dear Piccolo Team, it is with a heavy heart that Thomas has to say "goodbye" to you. He has had a totally amazing time and you will remain in our thoughts and wonderful memories of our time in New Zealand. He is ready for his next adventure in a UK primary school.
