Hi
We've been checking up on where the Ministry of Education is up to with creating a plan to make sure there are enough primary school spaces for kids in and around Aotea. We know it's a growing concern for a lot families, and will continue to be so as Transmission Gully gets up and running.
We're writing an article and we'd like to include the thoughts from people in the area. So what do you think? What's the best solution here? Build more schools? Where? Tighten up zoning to stop kids from outside the area from coming over?

*Please put an NFP with your post if you'd rather your thoughts weren't possibly shared in a news story!*

Do you remember the Good Neighbour Call Station?

Jared Nicoll Reporter from Kapi-Mana News

We are doing an article about the old Good Neighbour Call Stations that were in homes back in 1970s... and some a bit newer :)
Did your home have one? What did you use it for? Did it ever help in a genuine emergency?
Can someone please tell us all about these things and how they worked!

Poll: Spotted on a car in Whitby...

Jared Nicoll Reporter from Kapi-Mana News

A woman spotted this friendly warning stuck to a backseat car window in Whitby recently. It can be hard trying to get a baby out of the car when you're stuck in a narrow park - especially trying to avoid dents and dings.

A woman spotted this friendly warning stuck to a backseat car window in Whitby recently. It can be hard trying to get a baby out of the car when you're stuck in a narrow park - especially trying to avoid dents and dings.
Is a friendly warning like this a good idea for parents to prompt others to give them a bit more room or should parents just have to park further away?

Do you know what sick leave you’re entitled to?

With winter bugs doing the rounds, it’s worth knowing what the rules are about sick leave. So what are you entitled to?

• In general you’re entitled to 5 days’ of sick leave each year after you’ve worked for your employer for 6 months.
• You can accumulate any unused sick leave up to a total of 20 days.
• Sick leave can be used when you’re sick or when you need to be off work to look after someone else who is sick or injured (your partner, child, or someone who relies on you for care).
• Even if you’re a part-time or casual worker, you’re still entitled to 5 days’ of sick leave a year (once you’ve worked for 6 months continuously or for an average of 10 hours per week, and at least one hour in every week or 40 hours in every month).
• Your employer can require you to provide a medical certificate if you’re sick for 3 or more days in a row, and you’ll need to pay to get it. If they want proof of sickness sooner then they will have to pay the costs of getting the proof.

These are the minimum sick leave entitlements. Your employer can agree to give you more.

Check out our website for more information about sick leave and other employment rights and responsibilities. If you’ve got questions get in touch with a CAB near you, call us on 0800 367 222 (0800 FOR CAB), or contact us online.
