Three day landscape maintenance and management in-house programme - Mauritius
There is a palpable difference within the general attitude of the staff this morning. Though I did not attend I realised immediately during the little time I did spend in your class that your finger is firmly on the pulse of where our team is at and where they need to go. I think you offered many of them their first glimpse into the industry that they probably did not even know they are a part of. Amazing Course!

Three day basic design & horticulture programme
First off, I loved the course and have been in my garden ever since – a lot of the time just thinking, but also armed with a saw and a pair of clippers. It already looks better and more manageable. Thank you for sharing your experience and inspiring me to get stuck in and not be daunted.
Thank you for a great course. The content was great and it was excellent to be learning from individuals with many years of experience. You both are obviously a wealth of knowledge and three days is only the tip of the iceberg in trying to do justice to learn from such respected people in the profession!
I just want you to know that I really enjoyed the session that we had last week. I can’t remember a time when I enjoyed a course so much! I have always had an interest in the green industry from when I was young…maybe my mum’s love for the garden rubbed off on me. I intend to use the knowledge I acquired to improve my garden in Kenya. I will in due course let you know of any other courses that I am interested in doing. I will also not hesitate to recommend you to my friends and those interested in gardening. I surely hope you have a fruitful year and thank you again for your excellent service.
