It comes after news that the number of people in New Zealand able to speak te reo Māori is declining. What do you think? Should it be made compulsory? Do you think this will help retain the language?

My colleague is looking for a rental for him and his family (wife and 2 kids). They’ve sold their house and building a new place which will take about a year. They’re looking in Lower Hutt, up to Epuni with a budget of max $500/week.

My colleague is looking for a rental for him and his family (wife and 2 kids). They’ve sold their house and building a new place which will take about a year. They’re looking in Lower Hutt, up to Epuni with a budget of max $500/week.
Does anyone know anyone who has a place or do you have a place yourself?
My colleague works at a large corporate organisation and can provide several great references.
He’s a great guy with a great family looking for an immediate place and hasn’t had much luck so far.
Thanks neighbours

These classes help us as we age to retain lower body and core strength, remaining active to avoid falls.
No-one is bullet proof, falls happen and some can result in broken bones, pain and long healing times and can also make us fearful of falling again. Losing confidence can really affect quality of life.
Live Stronger for Longer strength and balance classes are growing nationwide. Visit www.livestronger.org.nz and join a class near you, you’ll find lots of practical information, advice and resources on how to live an active, healthy and independent life.
Proudly brought to you by ACC, MoH, HQSC and your local community health providers.
