Marsden Old Girl Joanna Prendergast is The Cool Mum
It's fascinating what our Old Girls get up to! Joanna Prendergast is a Psychiatrist by day and a Comedian by night. She has been touring her debut solo comedy show "The Cool Mum" around the South Island since mid 2020, winning the Best Solo Show and Audience Fav at the Nelson Fringe Festival. The show is a parody of a celebrity parenting seminar and she is bringing it to the Wellington Fringe Festival in March. Joanna assures us she takes her day job very seriously, but her comedy persona, Jo Ghastly, is a different story.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
