Who said video killed the radio star? Not Toastmasters!

Jane Fisher from Newtown Toastmasters

This weekend we're taking up an exciting opportunity!

Tune in to "Educating for Social Change" on Access Radio (106.1FM) on Sunday 22 September from 4 - 5pm, to hear two of our members, David and Jane, and Daryl from Island Bay Toastmasters, talk about what Toastmasters is, what we do and what we get out of it.

We got the chance to do this as a result of some successful promotional visits with the students and teachers at the English Teaching Colleges in Wellington and Lower Hutt. The Toastmasters who took part had a great time meeting everyone and it was a real bonus to get the radio interview.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
