Keyboard & Guitar lessons with The Music Man!

Howard from Ruakaka

Hi everyone,

I’m new to this social media thing, but I’ve been in the musical industry all my life. I’ve decided to give back my knowledge and offer lessons so I can teach a simple and easy method of playing keyboards and guitar.

My name is Howard (The Music Man). I’ve played in bands and learned many instruments in my life. Just to name some.. keyboard, guitar and mandolin.

You don’t need to be able to read music or learn scales, or know Mozart’s 7th Symphony! If you can count to 12 and know you abc’s you will be able to learn any song that you like. I can also teach vocal harmonies.

Feel free to phone or message me with any questions, at any time on 0272 619-775.

No Sandmining Bream Bay/Ruakākā

Kristi Neighbourly Lead from Tikipunga

Help protect our precious coastlines by signing the petition to stop destructive sand mining in Bream Bay, which includes Waipu Cove, Langs Beach and Ruakākā.

Sand mining destroys sea floors, erodes coastal protections, and threatens the habitats of critically endangered species like the tara iti - our most endangered bird with less that 40 left.

Why is this so urgent?

McCallum Bros Ltd (MBL), an Auckland-based mining company, is planning to extract 9 million cubic meters of sand from the seabed in Bream Bay over the next 35 years. Their proposal includes dredging up to five nights a week, for six hours at a time, with all the sand being sold to Auckland's construction industry.

This operation is expected to generate $270 million in revenue, or approximately $7.7 million annually, for MBL. Meanwhile, Bream Bay will see no benefits—only lasting harm. The dredging will cause irreversible damage to marine life, fish populations, and surf breaks, devastating the local ecosystem.

MBL is seeking consent for this project through the fast-track process, which excludes public consultation. This means we have no say in whether they can take our sand, destroy marine habitats, and damage our seabed.

The proposal will be presented to the government in mid-January 2025. We are at a critical moment.

Take action now — sign and share this petition to protect Bream Bay.
