At Heartland Bank, we share Neighbourly’s commitment to Kiwi communities and we’re proud to offer seniors the opportunity to stay in the home they love.

A house is more than bricks and mortar and a community is more than a boundary on a map; both are full of memories and comfortable connectedness. If your parent is having a tough time making ends meet, but don’t want to sell their home to fund the things they need or want, consider talking to them about releasing some equity in their home with a Heartland Reverse Mortgage.

Whether you're hitting the street to trick or treat, or staying inside with the the candy bowl by your side - here's some Neighbourly Halloween tips to ensure that this Tuesday is a fun and safe experience for you and your neighbours!

1. Set up a Halloween Group for your street! Plan your Halloween evening with your neighbours to see what time everyone is taking the kids out. You could even co-ordinate matching costumes!

2. Download one of our SPOOKY Neighbourly Halloween posters to stick on your house or letterbox for if:
- You welcome all trick or treaters
- You want trick or treaters to stay away

3. Stay in areas of your neighbourhood that are familiar and are well lit. And although Halloween is supposed to be spooky, be careful not to frighten your elderly neighbours by popping out of the dark!

Stay safe and have fun!

We have had a total of 300 Kiwi students visiting their Chinese sister schools in the past year, and the Chinese families provided outstanding hosts to the visitors.

In February, we will have some Chinese students aged 11-15 visiting their sister schools in different parts of Auckland. They will stay for around 11 days to experience New Zealand's 100% pure kiwi lifestyle and culture.

We hope each homestay family can host two students of the same gender in one bedroom with two beds in it or in two separate bedrooms. We would like families to prepare three meals and transportation each day for the students. In return, you will receive $280 per week per student.

Please contact us if you are keen to host.

Hi neighbours, have you heard of our award-winning show, Krishnan’s Dairy? Excited to know what they’re up to 20 years later? Be the first to experience our brand new show, Mrs Krishnan’s Party, with your friends: 6th to 14th December.

Mrs Krishnan has invited a few friends into the back room of her dairy (yes – Krishnan’s Dairy) to celebrate Onam and the return home of her son.
