Urgent housing needed/ rental

Kelly from Clouston Park - Kingsley Heights

Hello neighbours.

Edit: This family is now living in their cars. They have asked for help through all avenues including emergency housing, which they have said they cant help the family.
But this is typical NZ where we help foreigner's and not our own people. But please if anyone has or knows of anyone with possibly something for them to stay in that would be highly highly appreciated.

I am just wondering if anyone has or knows of anyone who may have a rental for a family of 3 ( a mum and her two sons) are looking for a rental asap as today i their last day in the rental they are currently in and have had no luck in getting another rental as yet.
Please get intouch if you have or know of anyone. They are looking around upper hutt lower hutt petone and possibly welligton. Thank you

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱

Gerda Takes On Te Reo Maori!

Shona McFarlane Retirement Village

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.
