For weeks now you've been catching waste-water you can re-use on the garden, now Council is able to do the same thing on a grand scale. If you've got a bucket in the shower and you're chucking your dish-water on the vege patch - we're with you!

Parks and Recreation manager Sue Hodge says “It seemed logical to use some of the water which goes through multiple treatment processes at the treatment plant and goes into the wetlands every day. Using a bit of it to water our fields, trees and gardens will make no difference to the ecology of the wetlands, but will make a big difference to the District’s fields, trees and gardens."
“We make a big investment in fields every year. They are very important to the community, especially with the winter sports season coming up and we want to look after them as well as we can."

“If I hear music, I just want to dance – body seems to just move!” says dancer Audrey, 84. Poet Brian, 86, says “Poetry helps me to question and understand the meaning of life”, followed by a witty “– haven’t worked out what it means yet”.
As their residents blaze their own trails, Ryman matches that pioneering spirit. “Ryman villages offer living choices to suit everyone so that you can live the way you want.”

Now, upskilling, online courses and on-the-job training are all part of making your way up the career ladder.
We want to talk to people who have completed micro-credentials, bitesize qualifications for specific skills.
Perhaps you've pieced together a full qualification by doing online courses, or maybe you've taken a workshop rather than investing in a six-month course. We'd love to hear from you - email josephine.franks@stuff.co.nz

Our Coordinator at Hastings District Council recently sent us this snap from a get together with residents from a new suburb who are keen to get Neighbourhood Support up and running.

Whangarei Intermediate School uniform from 2019. I have read on the school website that the school is still allowing this uniform as the new uniform will be phased in over the next couple of years.
This set would be considered a Medium-Large sized fit.

This set would be considered a Medium-Large sized fit.
Includes:
X2 Girls Shorts, size 92
X1 Boys Shorts, size 87
X3 Uniform Shirts (uni-sex) Sizes Medium and Large
X3 PE Shirts (uni-sex) Sizes Medium and Large
X3 PE Shorts (uni-sex) Sizes Large and 2XL
The three uniform shirts have a very small mark on two and one has a very small tear/rip.
The Boys uniform shorts are a bit more worn, however are in good condition.
The 2XL pair of PE shorts are a bit more worn, however are still in good condition.
All items are in good to great condition and some will easily do the next 2yrs. Some photos aren't that good and make the clothes look faded, they are all in good colour condition.
We are also selling two winter jackets, size XS (which is a Medium to Large size). $80 for both, or $40 each.
Thanks
