Four men who have been learning how to live independently in a new house at Kaurilands Skills Centre proudly took part in their home's official opening this week.
Called Riverview, it is the third residence at the centre at Tokatoka, near Dargaville, where 19 adults with intellectual disability live and work.
Family members and long-time supporters of the centre celebrated the opening on Wednesday.
Among guests were NorthTec trades students and tutors who helped build the house, other tradespeople and Dargaville Rotary members.
The Rotary club had given two donations toward the cost of the house.
