It comes after news that the number of people in New Zealand able to speak te reo Māori is declining. What do you think? Should it be made compulsory? Do you think this will help retain the language?

Minister's balancing act

ACC Minister Hon. Iain Lees-Galloway recently swapped his suit for shorts and a tee to join a ‘Live Stronger for Longer’ strength and balance class. These classes help us as we age to retain lower body and core strength, remaining active to avoid falls.

ACC Minister Hon. Iain Lees-Galloway recently swapped his suit for shorts and a tee to join a ‘Live Stronger for Longer’ strength and balance class. These classes help us as we age to retain lower body and core strength, remaining active to avoid falls.

No-one is bullet proof, falls happen and some can result in broken bones, pain and long healing times and can also make us fearful of falling again. Losing confidence can really affect quality of life.

Live Stronger for Longer strength and balance classes are growing nationwide. Visit www.livestronger.org.nz and join a class near you, you’ll find lots of practical information, advice and resources on how to live an active, healthy and independent life.

Proudly brought to you by ACC, MoH, HQSC and your local community health providers.

Just wondering if anyone learning Chinese and maybe we can be language partners. I can teach Chinese and you can help with my English. It's not like having formal classes, can be just casual conversations and help with my writing. I can try to teach basic Chinese. Hope I can find someone interested here. Thanks

General Practitioner

Rudi from Nawton

I am looking for a Medical Practice around the Hamilton Lake area for my Mum. Finance is an issue and it looks like most medical practices charge the earth for a consultation. On top of that, you hardly see the same doctor and you just land on this GP treadmill. Any ideas; Mum is in her 80's
