TAPAC's Father's Day Fundraiser - Dad's Drag Bingo Night!

Cinna Smith from TAPAC The Auckland Performing Arts Centre

📣TAPAC FUNDRAISING EVENING | 2 September | 7:30pm

Due to funding cuts, the future of our free Kids Dance Pacific and Seniors Dance programme looks uncertain.

Kids Dance Pacific teaches children more about the dances, customs and ceremonies of the Pacific, offering valuable contact with the students cultural heritage. Seniors Dance is designed especially for seniors living independently with age-related physical mobility challenges.

Both of these classes have been so beneficial to students mental, social, and physical wellbeing.

So put away your slippers and slip into some sequins for a fabulous night of celebrating dad and a good cause! Drag Queen hostess Shavorn Aborealis will guide you through multiple rounds of the game before wrapping up the night with a spectacular drag show. Our bar will be fully stocked with Dad favorite's - beer, cider, wine, and cocktails - prizes for bingo winners will also be up for grabs, alongside various raffles which you will be able to enter.

🎟Grab your tickets via the link - we hope to see you there!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? đŸ„

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
