She lacked self-confidence. ‘‘I had a negative mind set in which I had beliefs that I would never be successful at anything, with a very low self-esteem. ‘‘I made excuses because I had no motivation and little confidence and I let life pass me by even if it was a wonderful opportunity because I was so afraid of the unknown.’’
Not anymore! Prasad, 18, and the youngest in a family of five, is now working as a caregiver while studying a foundation course at NZMA for occupational therapy and has realised she ‘‘could do anything’’. She is the first in her family to go to university. The South Auckland teen has found her potential with the help of our Foundation that aims to transform young Kiwi lives.

Where else are the pipes running along the edge of the Lake. This is asking for ANOTHER spill when we were assured last year by TDC that they had it under control.
To make the excuse that is was an act of nature is rubbish. It's an act of poor design!!
Get these pipes moved away from the Lake and stop Taupo District Council from polluting our pristine Lake!!!!

Hey neighbours!
I'm going to be in Taupo this weekend and I'm looking for the best breakky spots. I'm a real sucker for a good eggs bene and anything halloumi-related.
Thanks! :)
Kendra.
Hi I’m a high school student (15), I love babies and young kids. I’ve had lots of babysitting experience over the last couple of years and have spent a lot of time looking after my young cousins. I’m available week nights and some weekends. Message for details.
Hi neighbours,
It's been just over a week since 800,000 litres of sewage split into the lake after a water main broke off Lake Terrace.
So we were wondering, how did the spill later your day-to-day life over the past week?
