Poll: Should our summer school holidays move to February?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's a debate that resurfaces each year as weather hits its peak just as kids head back to school.
Traditionally, we've paired the school holidays in NZ with the Christmas period, but would a shift to February make more sense for everyone?

Brainpower Needed 🧠 This One’s Too Tough for the Faint of Heart…

Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I am vital, though you won’t see me.
I can falter and bring calamity.
Signals electric guide what I do,
A short circuit may turn me askew.
What am I?

Poll: How confident are you feeling about our economy right now?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We’ve all seen the headlines lately — New Zealand’s economy shrank more than expected between April and June (down 0.9%).

(If not, you can read a summary of the June quarter's activity on this article published by the Post)

Now that the weekend’s over and things have calmed down a bit, the Neighbourly Team are keen to hear from you: how are you feeling about it all?

Summer’s coming, and holidays are on the horizon … should we be focusing on the future rather than the past quarter? Or is this dip in the road a real concern?
