Wellington Youth Choir and NPGHS Jubilate Choir Concert

Chris from Lynmouth - Moturoa

This coming Saturday 16th August, Methodist Centre at 2pm there will be a fabulous choir concert featuring two Youth Choirs.
The Wellington Youth Choir is directed by former Taranaki musician Rowan Johnston. The choir represents singers from throughout the Wellington region aged 18 - 25 and has earned a reputation for excellent singing and innovative programming. They have, in the last 12 months, presented concerts to acclaim and sellout audiences including a concert entirely made up of new works by Wahine and Non-binary composers throughout Aotearoa (including a work by New Plymouth composer Juliet Woller). This concert was recorded by SOUNZ Centre for NZ Music. They staged the choral oratorio “Considering Matthew Shepard” to a standing ovation and most recently their concert “Puanga” featuring all works in Te Reo Maori. This concert was in collaboration with Taonga Puoro specialist Horomona Horo. Wellington Youth Choir is excited to be able to present a concert in New Plymouth’s Methodist Centre (Whiteley Church) in collaboration with the wonderful Jubilate Choir from New Plymouth Girls’ High School on Saturday 16 August, 2pm. Entry is by Koha at the door.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
