He was such a wonderful singer, greeted us in the mornings and always participated at mat time. Recently, the children experienced the funeral of Queen Elizabeth and we were able to talk about Rangi passing and have a funeral for him at Uplands. We sang songs and said prayers for him. "He is flying to heaven to see the Queen" said the children.

Found debit card at London Dairy, Panmure.

Cameron from Panmure

I found a debit card at London Dairy today (Queens Road, Panmure) Lotto shop, and handed it to the checkout person. It looks to me that it’s a payWave card, possibly an ASB card but not sure. So if you’ve lost your card and visited the dairy between the hours of 4pm - 5pm, rest assured that … View moreI found a debit card at London Dairy today (Queens Road, Panmure) Lotto shop, and handed it to the checkout person. It looks to me that it’s a payWave card, possibly an ASB card but not sure. So if you’ve lost your card and visited the dairy between the hours of 4pm - 5pm, rest assured that your card is in safe hands and won’t be used dishonestly. Visit the dairy, if you’re the owner of the debit card.

Six of our NZQA Diploma Cookery students signed up for the New Zealand Hospitality Championships – previously known as the Culinary Fare run by the New Zealand Chefs Association at the recent Hospitality Hui held on on September 19, 2022.

Planning took place over the previous six weeks where the students formulated their dish concepts. Practical cooking sessions enabled them to test and try out their culinary ideas and refine their dishes.

These efforts were boosted by the reflections of our Head Chef Finn Gybel and his stories of when he had competed in Denmark nearly 20 years ago. Back then, our Chef Finn was sous chef to René Redzepi, now rated as one of the great chefs of the world.

As a result, we won 1 Gold, 2 Silver and 2 Bronze medals.

Birds nests and hedge trimming

Emma from Glendowie

Hi
Just a reminder to please try and remember to look for bird nests before cutting your hedges and or trees.

I usually do, but I completely forgot and have just missed cutting into a nest with young chicks in. I have built a temporary canopy, to give them cover, to be improved later today. I … View more
Hi
Just a reminder to please try and remember to look for bird nests before cutting your hedges and or trees.

I usually do, but I completely forgot and have just missed cutting into a nest with young chicks in. I have built a temporary canopy, to give them cover, to be improved later today. I wanted to try and make sure the parents carried on feeding the chicks which they are.

I just thought I'd make this post, to try and help someone else doing the same thing.

Thanks to the Atkin Ave tradies

Andrew from Orakei

Big thanks to the tradies building the apartments on Atkin Ave, Mission Bay: they've contributed >$4k (source: lgoima) in parking infringements to the council.

In return, residents have got blocked pavements, nails in tyres, well-familiarised parking wardens and more.
