This petition can be signed on line on the website www.mastertonrra.org... or there are static sites set up around Masterton during the month of August for you to sign in person (Paper Plus, Regent Theatre, Designer Court, Tunnell Tyres, The Screening Room, Mitre 10).

One of my two favourite humans, the manly one, he just loves running 🏃♂️ Running is all good by me! But my legs are a bit shorter than his… and I like to have good old sniff around too. So mostly I like it when we go for a walk together 🚶♂️😍 I have sussed out most of the walks here in the Wairarapa.. there’s a fair few to get through! I’ve popped a few of my favs in my blog (I’ve got my very own blog!) to get you started, www.wairarapanz.com...
Might see you around the tracks soon!

Competenz has recently launched a new micro-credential to improve the level of digital literacy in the manufacturing sector.
"With an aging workforce it’s imperative we enable companies to keep their tradesmen and craftsmen,” says Jahn Vannisselroy, Competenz Sector Manager. “This micro-credential, which we can tailor to a specific company, is giving people the confidence to meet technology head-on.”
The qualification is fully funded under the government’s Targeted Training and Apprenticeship Fund (TTAF) for employers who enrol their staff before 31 December 2022.

"Hi there my name is Poe and I am a great pup looking for my forever home. I have not had the best start to life so would love a home that understands my quirks and is keen to help me through them. A home that has the patience and time to help me be the best companion I know I can be. I am super social so I could go a home with another playful dog that loves having a good tumble. I am not suited to a home with young children so would love a home with teenagers, who are keen to teach me new things and take me on adventures. Puppy school is something I am looking forward with my new family, learning things and making new friends. I do come with a medical waiver that my new home would need to be aware of. If you think you are the home for me please contact the canine team for more information."
