Teen Jobs
Hi,
I am Josh and I'm 14 years old. Just an update on my last post, about my website, www.teenjobs.co.nz.... To remind you, New Zealand spends $345 million per year on 15-19 year olds unemployment benefits and I have taken up a challenge to address this. I would like to thank you all for your interest, positive comments and support after my last post.
Teen Jobs is now live to employers & households, with over 200 teenagers registered all across Tauranga & growing everyday with lots of contacts being made! I truly believe the website has the potential to help 1,000's of teenagers to find jobs and learn valuable skills for later in life.
BUT I NEED YOUR HELP!
It is a massive job to build up an active group of employers & households. We are free to use... so I have a marketing budget of $0 :) We have been fortunate enough to featuring on The Breeze Tauranga breakfast show & in The Weekend Sun newspaper. But we need to keep building up employers and households that will support teenagers.
If anyone has any contacts or idea that could promote or grow the website, please let me know. Also if everyone spreads the word, and tries the site, it will assist Tauranga's youth, providing them with experience & a little bit of extra cash.
Our site is designed to be extremely user friendly and free to use. You dont need to list a job, you simply select a teenager from our registered teenagers and make contact. Jobs can be everything from household chores like babysitting, lawn mowing, clean ups or even looking after the cat, right through to more permanent jobs.
Please visit my website, www.teenjobs.co.nz... for more information.
Kindest regards,
Josh Callander
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
