The Duke and Duchess will meet the public at Pukeahu between 4.45pm and 5.30pm after laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Warrior and visiting the newly unveiled UK War Memorial. It will be their only public appearance in Wellington.
· Try to arrive well in advance
· If you have to drive, try not to park too close to Pukeahu – there’s not much parking in the neighbourhood. Try to take a bus or take an enjoyable walk through the city to Pukeahu.
· Let the kids, people shorter of stature, and seniors, get up the front – taller people can get a good view over their heads
· If it’s raining (or blazing sunshine), leave the umbrella at home – it’ll block views. Instead, take a hat if it’s raining.
The Ta Ara Tapere ki Pōneke - Open Streets event in the CBD on Sunday means Taranaki Street, between Dixon and Jessie Streets, will be closed between 6am and 3pm. Other streets also to be closed during this time are:
· Victoria Street (Hunter to Wakefield)
· Wakefield Street (Victoria to Cuba)
· Lower Cuba Street (Wakefield to Manners)
· Dixon Street (Cuba Mall to Taranaki)
· Inglewood Place
· Ghuznee Street (Taranaki to Marion)
· Manners Street (Taranaki to Cuba) will be bus-only.
Bus services will run as normal except for routes 3 and 21. Diversions will be in place – check the details on the Metlink website.

I'm currently looking to start a kids class, but we cannot begin until we have at least 6 children in each age group.
The 2 classes would be on Saturdays at starting at 10:00am in at Endorphinz Gym in Miramar.
Please bring a pair of jandals to wear off the mat. No footwear is allowed on the mat.
Please bring a drink bottle
A Gi (uniform) is not necessary for starting out but you will need one for grading.
Gi’s can be purchased from Fuji Mae in Brooklyn
If you and your child are interested please contact me and I'll add you to the list.
Once we get enough kids to start I'll announce a date and go from there.
If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to message me:
work: dpreciado@wetafx.co.nz
personal: dave.preciado@gmail.com
phone/text: 021-268-3171
See you on the mats!

We are organising a market day fundraiser for our wee kindy in Hataitai on Sunday 18th Nov 10-1pm. We had a coffee cart organised but they have just cancelled so we are in a bit of a bind, is there anyone out there who may be able to help us!
Thanks

Chicken is a popular dish for many Kiwi families. But are you happy to pay the extra cost for free-range or organic chicken? If so, why do you fork out extra for it? Although buying free-range chicken might be an ethical choice for many, it's not necessarily any healthier than other chicken.
As part of a new Stuff series, we look at why chicken is so cheap to buy nowadays, what happens inside the barn, why chickens get so big and the use of antibiotics in chicken feed. To learn more about what happens to your chicken before you put it in your shopping trolley, click the links above.
