EASTER & PASSOVER WISHES TO ALL

todd from EarthDiverse

As Christians everywhere commemorate Good Friday and Easter, please join us in wishing our Jewish families and friends around the world best wishes for a warm commemoration of Pesach (Passover), which celebrates the exodus of the ancient Israelites from slavery. May this long-held tradition continue to remind us of the roots of discrimination, racism and hatred based on ethnicity, religion or the colour of one’s skin. As we welcome the annual Pesach seder to family dinner tables around the world, let us join our Jewish friends in saying “Never Again.”

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Hamilton mother wants an after-school programme investigated after staff failed to pick up her son - and failed to notice his absence - only for him to be found wandering the streets “alone and in distress”.

Sally Ford, whose six-year-old son was enrolled in the Knighton Normal School’s Knighton After School Programme (KASP), said the programme’s “inability to ensure his safety is completely unacceptable”.
