And the Cow jumped over the moon.

I went to the Harrisville School Calf Club Day on Saturday and was blown away by the effort and enthusiasm that not only the children and parents throw in to the event, but also the local community.  It seems that everyone rolls up their sleeves for the Big Day and mucks in.  The kids clearly love it as they get to take Mum and Dad to school, show off their artwork and parade their pets in public. Not even the weather could dampen spirits, people moved in to the Hall to look at the artwork, further bolstering the sales of the stalls as people took shelter. 

It is this community spirit and goodwill that has enabled the Franklin District to come through the Recession largely intact.  It also means we can look forward to the good times as well.  Our staff who attended the Day clearly enjoyed themselves and got involved.  Congratulations to Niki’s daughter Madisyn for her ribbons won on the day and good luck for the next event. 

Our staff get involved in many local community events, most obviously where directly involved as a Member.  It’s the beauty of living in the community we work with. 

We also contribute regularly to public causes such as South Auckland Health, the Cancer Foundation, Area Schools, Local Community Trusts and many other worthwhile causes.  In my next blog I will talk about our current initiative for South Auckland Health. 

Look forward to seeing you around town.

To bean or not to bean….

I don’t think the Earth has moved off its axis, but a Beanie is about to start using a blog!  A question I get asked sometimes is “what is it that Accountants really do?”.

   I think a lot of people have this picture in their heads of a bespectacled person sitting in a darkened room tapping numbers in to a calculator creating an ever-lengthening till tape.

  Although I have met that Accountant, that sort of person is glaringly absent from the Team at CTCW.  However this is my opinion and I feel duty bound to educate others on CTCW and the community we serve.  This blog seems like a great place to do it!  So strap yourself in, get your debits matching your credits (I’ll try to limit the Accountant humour) and follow me on a blog that will give you an insight in to the inner workings of an Accounting Firm.

Cheers
