Unfortunately not every-one is going to be able to afford them. So did you know that there is a rates rebate that you can apply for? A lot of people think you have to be over 65 years old before you can apply but if your income tax is $25,180 or less and live in your own home you may be able to claim the full amount of $630. Exactly how much you get will depend on what your rates bill is, how many children or dependents you have and your income. The rebate is income tested so even if you earn more than this you may qualify for some assistance. If you want to know more pop into your local bureau and talk with the volunteers, we can also tell you about rates remission for first home builders and rates postponement if you are experiencing extreme financial hardship.

What was it like when WW1 ended?
Historians Jane Tolerton, Steven Loveridge and Barbara Mulligan will each draw on their unique knowledge of the First World War to present what life was like after the signing of the armistice agreement on 11th November, 1918. The armistice ended the fighting on land, sea and air.
Dealing with physical and psychological wounds
Jane Tolerton will speak to her upcoming book that focuses on the lives of three men who were teenagers when they went to war. She will discuss their homecomings and how it was the women who picked them up and put them back on their feet, helping them get through their physical and psychological wounds.
Servicemen and their wartime experiences
Steven Loveridge will speak about his current research which focuses on the different positions former servicemen came to in regards to their wartime experiences.
Wellington war memorials
Barbara Mulligan will take a more practical approach to the talk and will discuss her ongoing projects which focus on Wellington war memorials and the restoration of the gravestones of influenza victims at Karori cemetery.
Each speaker will present for around 20-30 minutes and there will be around 5 minutes for questions at the end of each presentation.
