Have you found yourself back in the classroom - virtual or otherwise - long after you left school? We’re looking for people who have taken steps to futureproof their careers by upskilling.

Perhaps you’re teaching yourself to code, or maybe you’ve enrolled in an evening class or online course to help your employment prospects. It might have been something you did with your employer’s blessing, or maybe you’ve struck out on your own.

Maybe you’ve struggled to find work and did it as a way to get back on the career ladder, or perhaps you’re concerned about the pace of change in your field and want to stay ahead.

Whatever your brand of lifelong learning, we want to hear from you - email josephine.franks@stuff.co.nz

Mountain Music Concert - Postponed

Chris from Lynmouth - Moturoa

With much regret, the Taranaki Youth Orchestra has decided to postpone the 2 concerts that were to be held this Friday at Theatre Royal, at 4pm and 7pm.

With much regret, the Taranaki Youth Orchestra has decided to postpone the 2 concerts that were to be held this Friday at Theatre Royal, at 4pm and 7pm.

The concerts would not have complied with the recent advice from the Government, so will be postponed until the Covid-19 outbreak is under control.

If you have tickets for this you can get a refund from Pianoworks.

This is obviously very disappointing for the 200 children in ten school choirs, the choir directors and the members of the orchestra that have spent many months preparing for this.

Wanting to still travel ? Then my advice is to arm yourself accordingly!

Carole Garnham from Go4iT Travel - Carole Garnham

There are a few great weapons that I have provided my clients with in order to make them feel safer when planning up and coming travel!
For starters I can offer 'a cancel for any reason ' insurance policy. Ideal if you decide to cancel up to one week prior to travel. And that maybe because you are not sure or if something that is out of anybody's control stops you from travelling. You can now actively take steps to minimalize potential losses. * Conditions do apply.
I have also sourced an awesome NZ made product (which I have on sale) from Central Otago Medical school. Its an advanced probiotic defence lozenge. Designed to bolster your immune system up so no bad bugs can get to you whilst on the plane.
So if thinking travel, why not get in touch with me and start your travels off on the right foot!

Vapour blasted some objects today.

Didrik Stena from Vapor Blasting Taranaki

Vapour blasted only half of the objects, so you can see the 'before and after'.
We can do brass and bronze so they come out like they should have been polished.
