Meet Parminder Singh (Punjabi) who shares his journey with Te Whare Wānanga o Awanuiārangi:

“Studying in the Pōkaitahi Reo programme has allowed me to develop a totally beautiful and unique relationship with Māori communities in Auckland. The learning has helped my work to bridge gaps between Māori and others in our multicultural communities. When I look back, I feel really proud. It’s a great feeling when I speak te reo Māori. It’s a privilege.”

A Message from Bec at the Grooming Lounge (Barkleys on the River)

🌟🌟MATTED DOGS🌟🌟

It's that time of year again.....
Though we try and encourage everyone to keep coming in during winter, some are coming into us like this (See attached). It's so so important to keep coming in through the cooler months!
This dog's matts were so tight, when I released the pressure of hair from the ends of his ears, they started to bleed. This happens when blood rushes back into the ear. This dog took me 3 hours to get this off and to finish off the groom. He was a champion though and didn't complain once.

So, if you have a dog with long fur - Give him (or Her) a treat - they will feel sooooo much better in this heat!

It has to happen and could ultimately join with the North but who knows? Should happen sooner rather than later.

What do you think of Housing NZ's development?

Denise Piper Reporter from Whangārei Leader

Residents opposed to Housing NZ's 37-lot subdivision planned for Puriri Park have little choice but to accept it, with mayor Sheryl Mai saying it meets a desperate housing need. What do you think of the development? Is it in the right place in Whangārei?
