Items needed for an Early Childhood Education project
Hello people. My daughter helps run an Early Childhood Home-based Education organisation. They have a headquarters base where she is planning to build an Enchanted Forest which will be rearranged/reconstructed on a monthly basis, so she needs quite a collection of "treasures".
They need: Tree stumps for kids' chairs and tables. Paua shells, coconut shells, that kids can use as bowls. Large interesting buttons and beads for treasures and "silver" cutlery for making wind chimes. Painted "eggs" and glass paper weights that can be hidden amongst the trees. Birds nests in which she can put bird figures and decorative eggs/stones/precious looking items. Natural baskets and sheer scarves for dancing. Text or calls to 021 626 090 would be appreciated.
Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?
Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Gerda Takes On Te Reo Maori!
This year Te Wiki o te Reo Māori, Māori Language Week, is being held from September 16 to 23. It’s an important week encouraging all of Aotearoa to use te reo Māori in everyday life. Similarly, Mahuru Māori promotes speaking and celebrating te reo throughout the month of September.
Over the last couple of years, Gerda, a resident at Diana Isaac Village in Christchurch, has grown her Māori vocabulary by attending the virtual monthly te reo Māori classes offered to Ryman residents. This group learning environment is run by Anita Gill from Te Puna Reo Māori, a Māori online learning provider.
