Volunteers wanted
The Faraday museum is a real gem in our community, and the numbers of visitors and schools is increasing.
We are currently looking for some new volunteers to keep it humming.
So, if you love chatting to people, love tinkering, or getting your teeth into new projects.
Perhaps you are newly retired and miss those smoko breaks, have a trade and looking to support something in your community, or maybe you are new to the area and looking for something to do while the kids are at school.
Whatever the reason we need you.
We are looking for volunteers who are able to offer @ least 3 hours each week.
If this sounds like you, then please get in touch to find out more.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
