Our plans are progressing nicely – both properties are now unconditional. So we have to get serious about the move now.

![4_Tawa_St_sm_13](https://hef.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/4_Tawa_St_sm_13-300x225.jpg)
I am working hard at selling hundreds of books: https://hef.org.nz/resources/books-secondhand/. I hope to add to these lists each day and try to keep them updated regularly.
I am also selling heaps of stuff on Trademe, on Facebook selling pages as well as having a continuous garage sale until 18 April – feel free to come and see what is for sale – you might pick up a nice bookcase or two.
We should be getting a Report back from the MoE any day now – (not sure what will be involved in these next steps yet – will publish them asap)
Today or tomorrow I will be deciding which Moving Company to go with. Once that decision is made we will be getting heaps of boxes – packing, sorting, selling and ditching will begin in earnest.
1 April our good friend Suzannah is coming over from Victoria to help me pack etc.
