PYJAMAS WANTED PLEASE!
On behalf of girls and boys at our lower decile primary schools, Pukekohe Community Action (PCA) is co-ordinating a call for new or clean, good-condition second-hand pyjamas to keep kids warm at nights. We have drop-off points at Top Notch, King St; Pukekohe Travel, King St; and the Pukekohe Anglican Church office, or we are happy to collect them. If you would prefer you can donate money for the pyjamas to PCA, identifying your donation as being PYJAMAS, and we will make the purchase on your behalf (Acc No: 12-3023-0071016-00).
Charitable trust receipts will be issued if you let us have your contact email or address.
This is an initiative of the Franklin Health Forum, which is under the umbrella of Counties Manukau District Health Board, and is being co-ordinated by Pukekohe Community Action. Any questions contact Jan Wallace 0274521366 or email pukekohecommunityaction@xtra.co.nz
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
