Albany Centre Details
About Us
The Albany Kip McGrath Centre was established in February 2006 by Kathy Nel, further extending the tutoring service on the North Shore. Situated in the heart of the Albany growth area, and close to the new Mall, the centre offers easy access from the surrounding schools, with a safe drop-off zone and ground floor accessibility. Nearly 30 years experience in primary and intermediate level teaching allows Kathy and her team of qualified teachers to recognise and cater for each child’s unique learning needs. |
