Sue Williams will speak at Rotorua U3A’s October Forum about the work of the Kaharoa Kokako Trust whose aim is to protect the small kokako population within the Kaharoa Conservation Area, located mid-way between Lake Rotorua and Te Puke.
Predator control is an important aspect of the Trust's work. From a mere 24 birds two decades ago, there is now a population of 170.
The Trust's highly successful conservation programme was established 20 years ago by a group of volunteers. Their efforts now contribute to the national recovery of kokako by providing birds for translocation to other protected areas.
Their programme is now established as a model for other community conservation groups to follow.Sue will explain how the programme works and also, as the 2018/19 season starts, how we the public can help the Trust in its work.
Visitors warmly welcome with gold coin entry.
What: U3A Forum, Guest speaker, Sue Williams, Kaharoa Kokako Trust
When: 10am, Wednesday October 17. Doors open at 9.30 with refreshments.
Where: Bridge Club Rooms, Neil Hunt Park, Lynmore, Rotorua

New Zealand's national paper, the Sunday Star-Times, is embarking on a project to find out what Kiwiana has evolved into and how it encapsulates the values of our diverse, innovative 21st century nation.
Join us as we explore what Kiwi culture looks like in neighbourhoods across the country. In the coming weeks, you'll notice a few posts about Kiwi innovations popping up across Neighbourly - we'd love for you engage and let us know what innovations and innovators you think need profiling!
At ACC, we’re proposing to increase the levies collected from road users to pay for the rising cost of road injuries. If you’re a road user, these proposals could affect you.

This year Age Concern New Zealand want all New Zealanders to sign up as Age Concern Dignity Champions and stand up for the human rights of older Kiwis.
“There is no excuse for elder abuse, says Stephanie Clare, Age Concern New Zealand Chief Executive. I am appalled that we are still having to deal with cases each day where older people are taken advantage of.
“Just because someone is older it doesn’t mean they are less valuable, have less purpose or should lose basic human rights, the right to make their own choices and respect from those around them.
“Of the cases we see, 75% of alleged abusers are family members, either adult children or partners of adult children and that needs to stop!
“So come on Kiwis we all have a part to play. You can take a stand against ageism and join me by signing up today!” says Stephanie.
An Age Concern Dignity Champion pledges to:
• Reject stereotypes and focus on the uniqueness of every individual
• Speak up when they hear people speaking negatively about growing old
• Have the courage to question practices they feel are disrespectful to older people
• Not patronise older people
• Be patient, polite and friendly
• Have zero tolerance for abuse or neglect
• Build relationships – they combat isolation and loneliness by getting to know the older people in their lives.

I was dumb enough to let this guy talk me into taking away a cheap car I had for sale with disclosed issues, and has not paid for it after 7 weeks (Only $400.00) after many times stating he will pay for it (I have the messenger threads all kept and screenshot to back up my claim). He spun a story of someone testing one of his cars and not returning it or being paid for it and has even registered my car in his name. He also spun a bit of a yarn about playing rugby for Wales and being involved in the tours etc. I did a little digging and came across this very interesting article. If you deal with this guy with anything for sale or offered, please be very careful. PS, please keep a look out for my car Blue 2003 Peugeot wagon [FYT841]
