Another great story!
Southland father and son, Robert and Bobby Baird have recently received their forestry qualifications, proving you are never too old to learn.

While Robert has practical experience gained during four decades in the bush, he says vocational training like the qualification he has just done is helping keep people safe.

Competenz assessor Neville Muir worked with Bairds throughout their training programme.

“Bobby is very driven to succeed and very organised. He’s also very keen to continue upskilling his crew and there are a lot of different certificates still to do,” he says.

While Bobby is his boss at work, Robert turns back into ‘dad’ at the end of the day. “I give him a hand during the day when he’s got a lot of work on. We have a great relationship and it’s a magic thing to be able to do to work with your son.”

Happy Tuesday neighbours,

Most of the country will wake up in level 2 on Wednesday morning.

The key differences to the previous level 2 restrictions are limits on gatherings. Indoors, such as in hospitality settings or event venues, the maximum number of people allowed is now 50.

Outdoors, it is 100 – and records must be kept of attendees at both indoor and outdoor events.

Social distancing at indoor venues has also increased, from 1 metre previously, to 2 metres under the new alert level 2.

Read the full story on what level 2 means, including where you still need to where a face mask and other key guidelines, by clicking 'Read more' below.
