Our mystery bus trips are back! Every year we take our staff and family on a mystery trip, organised by Angela.
The day began with a Bus Quiz along the way, with some very competitive teams searching for clues without the others guessing what they were identifying.
This year was to the DC3 and War Birds Museum at Ardmore, South Auckland. Unfortunately, the weather was to rough to have an enjoyable flight, but we got to get up close and inside one of the longest serving and important planes flown in the south pacific.
After lunch we traveled to Woodlands Estate where we did a scavenger hunt, played games and had our annual game of informal "Progressive rules" cricket. Everyone gets to bat and field, with a few "unintentional" assists or impediments to even the game up, which makes for a hilarious afternoon.
After an enjoyable dinner it was our annual awards where we recognise staff for their efforts during the year.
Most Environmental was won by Joan
Most Dedicated was won by Lloyd
Most Improved was won by Lemuel
After a relaxed and enjoyable day, everyone was delivered back to their homes safely
Thanks to everyone involved for a great day and look forward to doing it again in 2024

Unfortunately we could not have our annual mystery Bus Trip due to Covid, but we still celebrated our annual award winners. We will have our Mystery Trip in the new Year
