NEW Women-Only Zumba Fridays at the Hub! Just $2 & kid-friendly <3
Fitclub at the Hub is excited to offer a new, women-only Zumba class, Fridays 10am at the Phillipstown Community Hub (Room 4).
This class was especially created for migrant and refugee women (and their kids!) who may require or prefer a closed, male-free environment to exercise in comfortably. However, all women in the community are welcomed, as we'd love to create a warm social atmosphere and forge new connections and friendships <3
This class is just $2, and all preschool and school age children are welcome to come along. We provide snacks and toys - a contribution to our communal snack box is welcomed but not compulsory!
Wednesday (open) and Friday (women-only) Zumba classes at Fitclub at the Hub are led by Lisa Clarke, a vivacious and wonderfully engaging instructor who melds Latin flavour and contemporary music and moves for an awesome fun workout that will leave you feeling fabulous. We welcome you to try out our extremely affordable Zumba sessions in Phillipstown!
Thank you to Sport Canterbury for partnering with us to bring this initiative to life. More info here: www.sportcanterbury.org.nz...

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
Addictive Eaters Anonymous
After ten years of depression, my life had hit rock bottom
I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers. There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.
Poll: Do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? ☔⚠️
As reported in the Press, the same low-pressure system that lashed the North Island over the weekend is now making its way south, bringing heavy rain and strong winds with it. It’s a soggy start to the week for many of us.
With more wild weather on the cards, we’re curious: do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? Or are you more of a “grab the torches and hope for the best” household?

47.1% Yes - we like to be prepared
