Calling for Volunteers for a Community Arts Initiative
Kia ora Neighbourly community!
Happy Lunar New Year! My name is Amanda and I'm a community outreach co-ordinator for this beautiful new theatre project called Year of the Tiger by Alice Canton [creator of Other, Chinese].
We are looking for people born in the Year of the Tiger [1938 / 1950 / 1962 / 1974 / 1986 / 1998] to register their interest to participate in what would be a fun and safe onstage "meet and greet". We are looking for volunteers from our community from all backgrounds and walks of life!
I've attached a little poster telling you more but please do reach out at amandagleo@gmail.com if you have any questions.
You can register your interest here: forms.gle...
Please tag someone or spread the word to anyone who you know is born in the Year of the Tiger!

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)
.
