MODERN SLAVERY IS CLOSER THAN YOU MIGHT THINK

Ian Munro from Rotary Club of Tawa Inc.

It mightn’t be easy to associate modern day slavery and human trafficking with our country, but, in fact, both are a reality in New Zealand. World-wide some 36 million people are caught up in modern day slavery with women and girls making up two-thirds of the victims. Human trafficking is the third largest form of organised crime internationally.
Tawa Rotary invites you to hear Katie Knowles, Operations Manager at MBIE, speak on how to become aware of these new forms of slavery.

Next Tuesday, 12 March, at the Tawa Bowling Club, Davies Street, Tawa.
Cost: $25.00 for the 2-course buffet meal, payable on the night.
RSVP: by midday Monday, 11 March, to tawarotaryclub@gmail.com

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

The Hikoi on Tuesday 19th

Jeanette from Tawa

I copied this from a Facebook page: The expected route of the hīkoi on Tuesday is from Takapuwahia Maree in Esldon towards Porirua and along Kenepuru Drive to Tawa, then up Middleton Road to Johnsonville, down Ngaraunga George and along the old Hutt Road to Wellington. They are anticipating significant congestion on the roads between 06.00am and 12.30pm.
