105 - yes 105 - Non Emergency Number

People of South Brighton/Southshore - this is for you.

The launch of 105 marks a very significant milestone in the history of New Zealand Police, so they made a song, featuring their staff, to help you get it stuck in your head. You might have noticed their awesome video promoting our new way to contact us for non-emergencies, 105. If you missed it, check it out here. www.youtube.com...

Until now people either called their local Police station or they called 111 if they wanted to get hold of Police. Quite often people called 111 just because they wanted to talk to someone even if the matter wasn’t urgent.

So, to help keep New Zealand as safe as possible, they have introduced 105 so people know how to contact them for non-urgent situations as well. You can use 105 to report things that have already happened that don’t need urgent Police assistance.

You can call 105 from both mobile and landline phones. It’s a free nationwide service available day and night for New Zealanders and overseas visitors.

You can also go online to 105.police.govt.nz to report:

- Theft in a public place
- Theft from a car
- Intentional property damage
- Shoplifting
- Lost property
Or to get an update on a report already made or add to an existing report.

Just remember to always call 111 in an emergency. The new 105 service is only for Police non-emergencies. Call 111 when:

- A crime is happening now – and the offenders are still there or just left
- Someone’s in danger or badly injured
- There’s a serious risk to human life or property
- You see a major public hazard, like trees blocking a road
- Any of these things are happening now or have just happened.
111 is also the number for Fire and Ambulance.

A simple rule of thumb for when to call 111 and when to call 105 is this: If it’s happening now, use 111. If it’s already happened, use 105.

Take a look at the website to find out when exactly to use 105 or for frequently asked questions, so you know what to do next time you need to contact us. 105.police.govt.nz...

PETROL

Jude from Avondale

What is going on with the petrol regulations that we were promised. Petrol is now up to $2.39 in places. This country is a big joke. We all work work work and things keep going up. Part of the problem with children not eating etc etc is because everything continually goes up except wages.

Teachers in area schools have voted to join primary and secondary teachers in New Zealand's largest-ever education strike on May 29.

The strike is the first time all teachers in the compulsory schooling sector have taken strike action simultaneously.

The teachers, who are jointly represented by primary and secondary teachers' unions NZEI Te Riu Roa and PPTA, voted to strike after four days of talks with the Ministry of Education failed to result in an offer. Read more here.

Calicivirus will be released in the Christchurch red zone to cull the fast-growing wild rabbit population, prompting a warning for pet rabbit owners to vaccinate their animals.

A jump in the number of rabbits counted on the Crown-owned land since last year has led to the pest control measure. Calicivirus K5, a Korean variant of the virus introduced in other parts of New Zealand last year, will be used.

The virus will be released through crushed carrot drops beginning in four weeks' time, starting with uncontaminated carrots so the rabbits get used to them.
