Hi neighbours – Loud Shirt Day is coming up in September and it's time to use your power of LOUD for GOOD.

Izabella was born profoundly deaf and in the four years following her diagnosis, her parents' emotions of shock, being scared and overwhelmed have turned to amazement, surprise and hope - all thanks to Izabella's progress as a hearing and speaking child.

Izabella loves to sing and dance, she enjoys gymnastics, bike rides and playing with her older brothers. What are her superpowers I hear you ask? She's fierce, adventurous and caring!

Register to fundraise and help deaf children like Izabella listen and speak. You can also donate here on Givealittle. Thanks for your support!

Police want to talk to a man who approached a child on their way home from school on Tuesday.

The man, described as a Maori, aged between 25-40 years with a bald head, wearing sunglasses and a black top, was, according to police, driving a vehicle when the child was approached on the corner of Victoria and Queens Sts and spoken to briefly. The child ran away, across King Street, prompting other traffic to beep their horns. The man continued to follow him in his car which is described as having black peeling paint.

Police are appealing for anyone who may have witnessed the approach or have any information to contact the Timaru Police on (03) 684 6086. Alternatively, information can also be provided anonymously by calling CrimeStoppers on 0800 555 111.
