The trouble is — we really, really love our cars. Collectively, Kiwis drive 49 billion kilometres (the equivalent of 1.2 million times round the planet) every year.

Meet Parminder Singh (Punjabi) who shares his journey with Te Whare Wānanga o Awanuiārangi:
“Studying in the Pōkaitahi Reo programme has allowed me to develop a totally beautiful and unique relationship with Māori communities. The learning has helped my work to bridge gaps between Māori and others in our multicultural communities. When I look back, I feel really proud. It’s a great feeling when I speak te reo Māori. It’s a privilege.”
Share in Parminder’s experience and enquire now for 2021. These programmes are tuition fee free!

Accurate and up-to-date vaccine program information can be found on this Northland DHB web page.
In this fluid situation it's best to regularly check the online resources, which are constantly updated, rather than relying on printed information that is already over a week old before it reaches us.
Also, to make it easier for vaccination providers, please let's make good use of the appointment booking options by phone or email, so that vaccine usage can be properly planned and the right number of doses prepared. The Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine used in NZ requires cold storage and is only good for a few days once thawed and mixed. If we just walk in at random, it makes it so much harder to plan and minimise wastage.
At Red Cross in Dargaville we have heaps of inexpensive gift ideas for your favourite mother this Mother’s Day. We are at 48 Victoria Street in Dargaville or phone us on 09 439 5583.

This painting was STOLEN from outside the back of Jesse Rose's store in Kamo last week while it was drying. It is especially SPECIAL because the artist is only learning and was really proud of her efforts.

It is especially SPECIAL because the artist is only learning and was really proud of her efforts.
UPDATE- it may look like we got the stolen painting back, But Sadly no- we haven’t. Despite huge efforts to try and do so.. and some truly AMAZING support of the public... (The post I wrote to say the painting had been stolen, has been shared over 440 x already online, so it’s definitely getting out there..)
It’s out of our hands now, but we are still hopeful it will be recovered., so keep sharing... as we Know people have seen this painting/will see this painting.
But in the meantime I printed off the only photo we had, which was an unfinished picture (the stolen painting had been finished) onto fine art paper, and then Melissa finished the final details ...(for the second time)
And that way we were able to include the painting in the exhibition on Saturday night!
Of course not the same as having the original painting- but it was something 🖤
This fantail will have quite a story behind it,
And I know one day (hopefully) it will make its way back to the owner..
If you know anything about this, please let Jesse Rose know on 021 155 6803, or return it to 575 Kamo Road, Kamo, Whangārei 0112.
We have lots of great gift items for Mother’s Day, 9th of May. Come and see all the inexpensive gift ideas for Mum. We are at 48 Victoria Street.
