                       Let’s take a look at June…

         There were four positions to be filled. A decision was made to combine the Project
           Manager and Administrator positions. Our newly appointed Project Manager,
          Michelle Langmann, officially starts the 1st of July 2021 – welcome to the Bonnie
                                             People family.
          Michael Little is our temporary driver for BEFS. He shows much enthusiasm and
                                  also helps out with handyman jobs.
          We decided to re-advertise the principal position and we have high hopes finding
           an ambitious leader for our ECD, Teletubbies. Interviews will be from mid-July.
