Asians on Screen; Final Frontier

Mary from Redwood

Hello good neighbours, the following event is coming to Christchurch and it would be awesome to give support to a Redwood raised young lady if you can make it.

Have you ever wondered why there aren’t many Asians in movies or T.V shows but the ones that appear on screen occasionally only play the stereotyped “Asian” roles?

Future Dragonz Christchurch is proud to present “Asians on Screen: the Final Frontier", proudly supported by the New Zealand Film Commission.

We are thrilled to have award winning New Zealand actress and playwright Alice Canton and Raymond Suen from the NZ Film Commission to discuss the awkward, confusing and downright hilarious questions around Asian representation in theatre and screen.


We will have free nibbles and would love to see you there and hear your thoughts.

When: 6 pm Tuesday 4 July 2017
Where: Upper Riccarton Library Community Room, 71 Main South Road.

Please RSVP your FREE ticket by clicking on this link here:
www.eventbrite.com... the venue has limited capacity so please RSVP and bring your ticket via printout or smart phone to the venue.

Poll: Should employees be able to work from home?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

At the post-Cabinet press conference, the National Party asserted they want public sector staff to return to the office. This has opened a conversation about other sectors in New Zealand who have adopted working from home (WFH).

Where possible, do you think employees should be able to work from home? Vote below and share your thoughts in the comments.
