Would you want your children or grandchildren taught by a teacher who denies the vaccine is effective or warranted sufficiently for them to get jabbed twice in three weeks without the need for the Government to make it mandatory?
And this is despite the tremendous weight of evidence which supports Covid innoculation as the way forward for mankind and recognises the vulnerability of children to the Delta variant of the virus.
More than 700 children have died from Coronovirus in the USA alone.
As expected the NZ Government is gearing to make it compulsory for vaccinations in professions that deal with the public directly such as teachers, retirement home staff, hospital staff, front line workers etc.

The railway crossing south of UH rail station coupled with the four directional roundabout a few metres east is causing traffic congestion all round and the situation will simply get much worse with increase rail transport and much increased traffic.
The most obvious solution is a vehicular underpass (such as the one created south of Silverstream rail station many years ago) or an over head vehicular bridge.
But no. UHCC see resolving the situation is in removing the round about and in its place installing a set of traffic lights.
While this will go a little way towards some alleviation of the traffic snarl, it does nothing to address the lines of traffic held back by wooden arms waiting for trains to go from either direction at a greatly increased frequency.
But to the person who screamed that the UHCC would not do anything, I guess that person is mistaken.

Postural stress is a common complaint we are hearing, as people are working from their counter tops or dining room tables.
We have a few tips to help your not so ideal home setup to be as ergonomic as possible to ensure we are supporting your posture and spinal health while you work from home. 👍
Some common complaints we are hearing include:
Shoulder tension
Headaches
Eye strain
Tight upper back muscles
Neck pain
Tight hip flexors

I have no great liking or belief for Halloween. Its background is edgy and it was kind of foistered onto our society by commercial interests. In that regard not a lot different from most other celebratory annual events particularly those of American origin.

In that regard not a lot different from most other celebratory annual events particularly those of American origin.
But that is not to say I haven't participated in Halloween one way or another and my wife buys lollies for us to give to any trick or treat people who knock at our door and show an inkling of a costume/ facial makeup and especially if they can actually do a trick. Most kids seem ignorant of what a "trick or treat" actually suppose to mean.
Last year we didn't have to give away any lollies as no one turned up so we enjoyed them ourselves. Pays to buy something you yourself likes.
Perhaps Halloween is waning in NZ.
There are still teenage and adult parties in NZ with a Halloween base. Maybe the adult version of dressing up in something resembling hideous and partying is pretty cool. Some adults just love dressing up for theme parties.
And I have been right in the thick of it at Art Deco in Napier and am suppose to book again for next February . But will it be going ahead?
Whether you need last minute costume ideas, or would just like to browse through some spooky knick-knacks, pop into your Red Cross Shop near you this Halloween!
