I was horrified to hear that the fantastic and helpful assistants at the local pharmacy were abused at the Christmas 'special' night in 2019. As a result, no wrapping was offered this year.

As a result, no wrapping was offered this year. Fair enough. However, what sort of cretins go to a special night with an amazing range of products at generously discounted prices and have the nerve to abuse staff who have been asked to wrap items? Most of us just waited patiently, having basic intelligence to realise that the delays were because the gift wrapping is skilled, appreciated and takes time. Too bad if you have to wait, learn to be patient, it wont kill you!

Sadly we see this every day, regardless of the reasons (and there are many very obvious ones), the simple facts are, kids are missing out. This report confirms our experience; very few students entering high school are at the expected level in maths and most have done hardly any science. At FOCUS, we offer teacher led programmes to try and ensure our students have the base skills expected for Y9 in maths and in written language. We can also support your Y9/10 students struggling with these subjects. Talk to us about 2021; catch up, keep up, or get ahead!
It’s hard to put your finger on why Ryman care centres just feel different. Perhaps it’s our constant drive to improve through innovations such as our myRyman Care app and Delicious menu, or perhaps it’s the genuine warmth of the care we provide.

Our 'Experience the Care Difference’ guide paints a picture of the care, kindness and comfort that our residents experience every day. It offers a comprehensive guide to rest home, hospital and specialist dementia care, as well as our serviced apartment options. So, for the inside knowledge into what makes a Ryman care centre different, check out our guide.
Napier residents are feeling forgotten as they deal with the impact of floodinn last month.
More than 100 homes were left uninhabitable, due to flood damage and slips, after the one in 250-year flooding event.
It is mandatory under the Consumer Information Standards (Care Labelling) Regulations 2000 for many new textile goods supplied in New Zealand to comply with specific sections of the Standard AS/NZS 1957:1998 Textiles – Care labelling.

The purpose of the care labelling consumer information standard is to make sure that:
• consumers are aware of the method and cost of caring for textile products when they are buying them
• a cleaner can confidently use the information to take care of the textiles
• the textile’s life is not shortened by inappropriate care information or no information
• the textile is not damaged or destroyed by inappropriate care.
It is illegal to supply textile goods that do not comply with this standard and the regulations.
The regulations set out the types of textile goods covered by the standard and what parts of the standard apply to New Zealand.
The standard sets out the words, terms and symbols to use on a label to show the correct way to care for textile goods, including dry-cleaning and washing.
The regulations are issued under section 27 of the Fair Trading Act 1986.
Who do the regulations apply to?
Any person supplying, offering to supply or advertising the supply of new textiles, that require care labelling information, must comply with the regulations. Any person includes retailers, importers, distributors and manufacturers.
Types of supply include textile goods for sale in a shop, on internet auction sites, at markets or stalls or in craft shops.
What textile items have to be labelled with care information?
The care labelling standard contains more details and requirements, some of which are very technical. You should read both the regulations and the standard to make sure you understand all the labelling requirements.
