As October fast approaches, we're anticipating the start of the ninth Malaghan Month, after nearly a decade of partnership!

At Just Paterson, we'd love to help you sell your home - but more importantly we'd love you to help us, help The Malaghan Institute this October.

The Malaghan Institute is a research institute very close to the heart of the Just Paterson team. That's why, each year, we dedicate an entire month to celebrating the amazing cancer, asthma and allergy research they do.

During the month of October, we donate $1,000 from the sale for EVERY property sold as well as running other interactive initiatives you can be a part of.

Ensure you're following Just Paterson on Facebook to find out how you can help us, help The Malaghan Institute for Malaghan Month 2018. Get in touch with the team to find out more.

Open Letter to Metlink re: Your Bus Network Facebook Live Sessions

Lim from Northland

Dear Metlink: On Our Way ,

Dear Metlink: On Our Way ,

First of all, I applaud Metlink’s effort in engaging the community on the new bus network problems. I have a few suggestions which I would like to make, and I hope it will make the Facebook Live sessions more constructive and meaningful for all parties.

For nearly 4 years, thousands of commuters have written to Metlink/GWRC regarding the proposed new bus networks. Many of us had also attended numerous public meetings. However, the strong feeling that we have as a Wellington community is that we have been ignored all along and instead Metlink listens to consultants.

I hope Metlink is aware that people are very sceptical about any Metlink consultation sessions. Since the new network has gone live on the 15-July, people are wasting hours of their time (often daily) coping with the new dysfunctional network. Parents are in worse position of having to cope their own transport problems and school buses problems as well.

The time of just talking about the problems is well and truly over. We as a community want to see a concrete action plan on how the problems can be fixed promptly. The problems with the new network are well understood and can be summarised below:

• Excessive delays in getting to the destination
• Severe overcrowding during peak time
• Lost of direct routes and multiple transfers required to get to the destination adding to the delay. Commute time is now taking 2 – 3 times as long.
• Missing buses
• Ghost buses and unreliable Real Time Information
• Some routes are now missing in the new network

I would also encourage Metlink to share the many feedback which you have received since going live and all the historical feedback regarding the new network. The art of listening is to play back concerns which have already been provided by thousands of people recently and historically.

To make the Facebook Live sessions meaningful and constructive, I would like to suggest Metlink changing the sessions more to:

“This is what we will do given the feedback that we have already received for these suburbs and this is the timeframe that we will work to”

Anything less than what I suggested above is not going to address people’s scepticism that Metlink is consulting in good faith this time. I look forward to hearing from you.



Yours sincerely,

Lim Leong

Hi there! My name is Larissa King, i'm 27 years old and I recently moved to Wellington after 8 years in Auckland where I completed a Music degree and taught singing and songwriting in various schools and tertiary institutes around Auckland for the past 4 years!

I have also been nannying part time for that entire 8 year period, most recently, 2 full days a week for a 1 and 3 year old for the entirety of last year. I have looked after a wide range of ages over the years, from 1 - 15.

I am currently available Thursday and Friday full days to fit some work around my current jobs! I am looking at 1 or 2 days of work at this point.
I am an energetic, fun person who thoroughly enjoys interacting with kids.

Full drivers license, first aid certificate, clean record, police vet and references available!
If this sounds like it work for you, I would love to hear from you!
