Auckland Emergency Services are asking people to stay away from West Coast beach communities which are trying to recover from last week’s storm.

What you need to know:
- The affected beaches are Piha, Karekare, Bethells, Muriwai, Huia and Little Huia
- The beaches have been closed to non-residents only
- The closures are for safety and to ensure road repairs can take place

“While there is road access into Piha, it’s limited and we’re asking people not to go to Piha to go surfing or picnicking, I know we may have a fine weekend coming up but to stay away out of respect for those communities,” Duty controller Mace Ward says.

If you are wanting to check swimming conditions in other areas of Auckland, check the SwimSafe site.

Hi,
I know this is a long shot but amazing things happen when you just ask.
We are packing up and moving to Rarotonga for a year or two so I can nurse there. Therefore we have some shipping containers we need storage for. The regular container storage facilities are too expensive so we are looking for someone with some space, maybe a lifestyle block or a yard at their work that we could store them. Happy to pay, but just don't want to pay an arm and a leg for it, as wages in Raro are pretty low.
Would like to keep the containers in one place but if you can only take one, then we can look at splitting them up.

Hello Neighbours,
I have been tutoring the free NZQA business programmes for Te Wananga o Aotearoa (TWoA) for 20 years now and absolutely love it as it brings these valuable skills and resources to our South Auckland communities, free of charge.

I hold a Masters degree in business (MBA) and additional to the usual business management papers, one of my specialty papers in my masters degree is Project Management. Therefore, not only am I very experienced and qualified in this arena, but I am passionate about helping people learn how to set up and run their own business in New Zealand. I am also a business practitioner, as I have had my own business since 1995, in this field and also own a property management company.

This semester, TWoA is offering the NZQA Level 5, NZ Diploma in Business - Project Management. this semester. Although the major is project management there is also a small business management component to compliment this genre.

It will run for 36 weeks, the first week of March and ending at the end of November. There is a two week study break in July. The programme is designed to attract current business owners who want to develop more business skills, or people working who want to move into project/business management. Therefore, the class is only one evening a week, (6 - 9pm) where most classes will be taught via zoom and some classes (about 8 classes) will be face to face at MIT, Otara campus). You will be also offered one/one mentoring sessions as part of the programme and workshops to help with assignments etc.

It is a free course and all resources (except stationery and laptops/computers) will be provided, also free of charge.
The criteria for entry into the programme is that, you must be a NZ citizen or permanent resident and you must hold a level 4 qualification, in any field, it does not need to be a level 4 in business, but that would be useful.

I have a few seats left in my class, and if you are interested, please email me (simplybusiness2017@outlook.com and I will send you the programme overview. Include your phone number and I will call you in the next day or two to explain how you can enroll. Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to gain a valuable NZ business qualification.

Warm regards

Josephine
