Good People

On Thursday the 17th October, WFS will be doing our annual screening of the Show Me Shorts Film Festival, which has become a crowd favourite.

We are doing two sessions of the Sampler Program. One at 6pm and one at 8pm. It is screening ONE NIGHT ONLY - SO DON'T MISS IT

SMS 2024 - Sampler Program
NZ and International short films
105 mins, Rated M - (strong language and content that may offend.)

Enjoy the highlights from this year’s Show Me Shorts (SMS) Film Festival. It's a selection of the most vibrant, fun and imaginative short films from NZ and around the world.

Equal parts moving and silly, the stars include Joanna Lumley and Ben Whishaw, alongside local actors who shine.

SMS is all about the connections between us. You'll see heartfelt stories of homelessness, demolition derbies, the horrors of camping, dealing with death... and meeting your partner's weird family for the first time!

WFS is proud to be part of the 2024 Whangarei Fringe Festival.

Showing at Forum North, 7 Rust Ave Whangarei on Thursday 17th October with sessions at 6pm and 8pm

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
