Acacia Cove Village are in full swing at level 1!
Acacia Cove is celebrating in style with three magnificent shows coming up for our residents, organised by our village manager, Bruce Cullington.
We are looking forward to kicking off on Friday 12th June with the amazing Jackie Clarke and a couple of more shows after that.
I’m sure we are all pleased that our lives can turn back to normal, what ever that means for you. But we are also aware that it was a very stressful time for everyone, and that some are still a bit hesitant to go about their normal lives.
Take your time, stay safe and stay warm.
What workplace change would you like to see most?
This coming Monday is Labour Day in New Zealand. This public holiday marks when the eight-hour workday and 48-hour workweek became law in 1899. The idea started with Samuel Parnell, a carpenter in Wellington, who in 1840 refused to work more than eight hours a day. Since skilled workers were in short supply, his employer had to agree.
As more skilled workers arrived, employers tried to change working conditions, but Parnell and others kept pushing for better rights. In 1890, Parnell led a Labour Day parade of 1,500 people to promote the eight-hour day. He passed away shortly after, and nine years later, Labour Day became an official public holiday.
