Happy Mother's day to all super mums!

If you're a mum or know some mums struggling to learn to drive, check out pcds.co.nz for great inspiration. Here's a great success story of Lulu.

“I was determined to get my driver’s licence but it did not happen because there was no Road Code teaching at the Mangere Refugee Resettlement Centre. I still had a chance while I was in Auckland but I was busy at Starship Children’s Hospital because of my youngest daughter’s medical condition. I had to stay with her in the hospital for nearly a month. I had to juggle my time when I was chosen for an 8 week basic computer training which I did not want to miss.

Before I got my learner’s licence I was offered a car by a gentleman who had to go to a rest home because of his health. He wanted to give his car to a refugee and I was given the car through the Tenancy Manager. Read more:

The Analogy of Money

Andrea from Eden Terrace

Money had no meaning to the banker
Who was no more than a poor man’s debt
Money makes the world go around
He believed what his teacher had said

Money had meaning to the baker
Who sold baking to make some bread
Money makes the world go around

Money had no meaning to the banker
Who was no more than a poor man’s debt
Money makes the world go around
He believed what his teacher had said

Money had meaning to the baker
Who sold baking to make some bread
Money makes the world go around
And hungry mouths paid to be fed

Money had little meaning to younglings
Who happily exchanged coins for sweets
Money makes the world go around
And rewards spending with a treat

Money had intricate meaning to the developer
Who profited buying land from the crown
Money makes the world go around
For what is exchanged cannot be found

Money had meaning when people had dreams
Now our future is built on currency
Money makes the world go around
It is our lucid dream for our independency
