EXCEED in Tanzania
Just wanted to share some work that Amy Bos, a Wellington school teacher, has been doing as a volunteer in Tanzania that we have contributed to. Here's what Amy had to say:
"Thanks so much to the team at Exceed Hutt Valley for supporting Aston Vision School in Arusha, Tanzania. With your help we have been able to brighten up the classrooms with a fresh lick of paint! The teachers are excited to teach in their new bright classroom, and the kids can't wait either!"
We are so happy we have had the opportunity to have a small part in making a difference for these children.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

BLACKHAWK CORGI RACES SUNDAY NOV 17
Who is the fastest Corgi in NZ?
This will be decided on Sunday, November 17 at Belmont Domain, Lower Hutt with racing starting at 2pm.
Thirty Pembroke and Cardigan Corgis will take to the 60 metre track for racing like no other.
Competition comes from as far away as Auckland and Whanganui and if you want to stretch it a little - Scotland - with the very recent arrival of Skye and his owners from the other side of the world.
The youngest to compete is 7 month old, Atlas whilst Bonnie at 14 years is part of the seniors (nine and over) event.
Spectators very welcome to this sixth annual championship organised by the Wellington Welsh Corgi Club.
