Vape shop to open next to school

Sheetal Neighbourly Lead from Flaxmere

I just found out that the dairy next to Raureka School has had approval to sell vaping products, this dairy is 40m from the school not 300m as per the requirements. There obviously was no discussion with neighbours or the wider community.

Security from Scammers

Everyone should get on board with this. These scammers sounded very plausible and how often do we take calls from private numbers or 0800 numbers when we can't be sure it is from who they say.

Poll: Should cellphones stay out of classrooms?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The leader of the National Party has announced a plan to ban cellphones from all classrooms to minimize distractions for students. The Labour party has commented that this is commonplace already and is a decision best left for individual schools. Do you think a ban should be enforced?

CORDED jug wanted to buy.

Sonia from Parkvale

Looking for a corded jug. Can’t seem to find any new ones these days. I bought a kettle tipper for my mum who had a stroke but it’s to fit a standard jug with a cord. Not a cordless one. So I’m trying to track one down to use temporarily until she’s a bit stronger. Thanks.

A few months ago a kind lady donated a couple of stereos to the workshop. Unfortunately one came with the wrong remote.
Sadly, I can’t remember who it was. And I am sorry. It has been a full on few months.

If that was you, would you be wanting to swap the longer black Panasonic remote (part number N2QAYB000639) for the Panasonic SC-PM200, with the short one you left with the micro system stereo. It appears they aren’t interchangeable.

Otherwise, does anyone have one spare?

I know it has been a while, but I hadn’t realised the reason I couldn’t program the stereo was the remote, until recently, and now, as I’m looking to sell the business, I need to make sure everything works properly.
