Free smartphone & tablet classes at Auckland Libraries
Hi Neighbours,
I hold regular free smartphone & tablet classes at Auckland Libraries. Do you know someone who got one of these for Christmas and has questions on how to work it?
Classes are held for both Apple & Android devices at various Auckland Libraries.
January 2019 class times for libraries on the North Shore are as follows:
Apple iPhones & iPads:
Sat 19 Jan 2pm (1 hour) at Takapuna library.
Fri 25 Jan 10:30am (1 hour) at East Coast Bays library (Browns Bay).
Android smartphones & tablets (Samsung, etc):
Sat 12 Jan 2pm (1 hour) at Takapuna library.
Fri 18 Jan 10:30am (1 hour) at East Coast Bays library (Browns Bay).
Bookings are not required, but seats are limited so please arrive early to avoid missing out.
Classes are interactive – you will be invited to ask questions – so each class is different and covers topics as requested by those attending.
I hold these classes as a fundraiser for Harbour Hospice. A gold coin donation (all proceeds to Harbour Hospice) is invited but is not required.
For more information, and class times for February and other Auckland locations (e.g. Orewa & Whangaparaoa), go to www.triplesweet.co.nz... and click on the section for the free classes at Auckland Libraries.
Please share this information with your friends, family, clubs or groups who may be interested in the classes.
See you there!

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?
-
59.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
85% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
15% No. This would be impossible in practice.
