Previously unemployed and struggling with anxiety, Jack found a new path after joining the Toroa Career Navigator programme run by Graeme Dingle Foundation Marlborough.

Through the programme, he discovered his passion for the viticulture industry and was able to secure a cadetship opportunity with the help of his mentors and programme coordinator.

Now, almost six months into his job, he feels more confident and is grateful for the support he has received. Jack encourages other young people if given the opportunity to take the course and give things a go.

Table tennis table with bats, nets, balls SOLD

Joan from Masterton District

This table tennis table was made by a joiner with edge-lipped customwood . It has had a lot of use but still heaps of life left in it.
The table is in two pieces. Sorry for the quality of the photo. The underside of the table is white and it is too heavy for me to pull out and photograph properly.… View more
This table tennis table was made by a joiner with edge-lipped customwood . It has had a lot of use but still heaps of life left in it.
The table is in two pieces. Sorry for the quality of the photo. The underside of the table is white and it is too heavy for me to pull out and photograph properly.

It comes with two trestles, bats of varying quality, balls ( the packets are full) nets and net holders etc.

Its not modern and shiny but all the bits are there.

It served out family well but they have long flown the nest living overseas.

So, I would like to think it would go to a good home where some other family can get the fun out if it that ours did.
You don't have to be very good to be able to get the ball over the net.

$100.00 for the lot

Pickup is in Kuripuni.

Price: $100

As the nonprofit, low-fee KiwiSaver provider, our mission is to provide a better choice for Kiwis. We’re about making members wealthier, not lining shareholder pockets.

So we’ve just announced our 5th fee cut in 5 years. From 1 April, we’re lowering our total fund charge to 0.30% across our Conservative, Balanced and Growth KiwiSaver Funds and our diversified investment funds. Says Sam Stubbs, Simplicity MD: “Being a KiwiSaver manager involves huge economies of scale. Fee cuts in our industry should be frequent, but they aren’t.”

Simplicity believes in passing on the benefits of scale to our members – and we’re on track for further fee cuts in the future. Check out more details on our blog now!

Poll: Should we scrap daylight saving?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Sunday we'll be putting our clocks back for the end of daylight saving. Despite the benefits of an extra hour of sun during daylight saving, these clock changes commonly bring disruptions to our households and sleep - some feel that it should be scrapped altogether. What do you think?
