Spanish classes at the Russell Keown House
Hi everyone, my name is Maribel and I’m an experienced Spanish teacher and a native speaker from Perú. I’ve been teaching Spanish for the last twelve years both in language schools and privately, in Germany, Perú, and in the last three years in Newtown. I just moved to Lower Hutt a couple of weeks ago and I'll be starting Spanish group classes every Monday from March 9 onwards (except public holidays) at the Russell Keown House in Lower Hutt (1 Knights Road, entrance on Queens Drive).
For people interested in learning Spanish or consolidating their knowledge or maybe for those would like to sharpen up their conversational skills, I'll have three classes:
6.00-7.00pm Spanish for beginners
7.00-8.00pm Pre-Intermediate Spanish
8.00-9.00pm Conversational Spanish (for people that already have around an intermediate level of Spanish)
$15 per class or $65 for five classes.
If you're looking for a private class, these are available for $40-50 per hour in Lower Hutt.
Contact me to register and also feel free to ask for more information :)
Muchos saludos
Maribel

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

There are some really awful people around at the moment. This is what happened on Sunday.
We live in Hinemoa Street opposite the Waiwhetu Stream. At around 3.40 in the afternoon I was looking out my window and saw a car pull up and start to feed the geese and ducks out the window. Then The passenger an asian man jumped out and threw himself onto a goose. he picked it up and put it the boot of the car.
I immediately ran over and stood in front of his car to stop him moving I also called my husband to help. A lovely man was riding his bike and saw it and stopped to help me. The driver tried to drive into me but I didnt move. He tried telling us it was his pet. These are wild geese.
They had a cage in the boot and some wire all ready to catch the poor bird like they have done it before. My husband took the bird from the car and released it. I then moved out of the way and after lots of abuse from the driver they drove off threatening to come back and get more.
No one should be allowed to take these beautiful birds and certainly not like this. they are all starting to have wee babies at the moment the whole thing was so upsetting to me. Another neighbour further down the road also saw it all happen.
Please keep a look out for this car and if you see them by the stream go over and watch them lets all stop this happening.
