The Rangiora Lions Club, in North Canterbury, is auctioning two framed face masks signed by Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and director-general of health Dr Ashley Bloomfield.
The masks feature phrases commonly uttered at the daily 1pm Covid-19 briefings: “Be kind” and “Kia ora koutou katoa.”
All proceeds will go to Blind Low Vision NZ, formerly known as the Blind Foundation. The masks are being auctioned on Trade Me.

About 50 people staged a protest outside the entrance to Taggart Earthmoving Ltd on Saturday morning to convey their concerns about the planned quarry at Rangiora Racecourse.
Opposition has rapidly grown since the quarry application was publicly notified at the end of October, particularly among residents in northwest Rangiora, who live near the racecourse.
Many of those protesting said they had grave reservations about the effects of quarrying on the health of those living nearby.
What are your thoughts on the proposed quarry?

Hi, we need to get into Christchurch (Fendalton) for an 8am appointment tomorrow. Are there delays on the overbridge/on ramp to motorway now? How long should we allow to get there from Mandeville? Thanks

Respondents Brendan and Colleen Ross said that Southern Response had left them $100,000 out of pocket and the Supreme Court made the landmark decision to uphold their case on an opt-out basis, which allowed the other claimants to be represented in legal proceedings.
The decision means that if the government pays out in one case, they must pay out to the 3000 others, lawyers estimate this to cost the taxpayer $5 million.
Are you still experiencing financial difficulty as a result of the earthquakes?

Kids ask us for attention because they are learning how to navigate the world and build relationships - they need to be able to speak and be listened to so they can learn and grow. Challenge the #outdated rules - it’s time to shake off the old and reveal the new.
Only a week left until the annual Christmas Picnic in the Park! Bring your friends and family because it's going to be a great afternoon ⭐🌞

The New Zealand Flying Doctors are only partly government-funded, and it is only with the kindness and generosity of the community that we can continue to deliver this life-saving service. With mission numbers increasing each year, the need is greater than ever before.
Today we are asking you to support missions for neonatal and paediatric patients - with over 70 missions a year for children under 15 years of age, we are focused on getting each and every one of them the right medical care.
Your contribution will help save the lives of New Zealand children!
