Cleaner required.

Paul from Opawa - Saint Martins

Cleaner required for Central City restaurant. 5 days a week , Wednesday to Sunday . Usually takes around 3 hours. I’m flexible on time . 9-12, 10-1. Whatever suits!
28 dollars per hour… experience would be great but not essential. Ideally the candidate needs to be physically fit, as it’s a fairly big venue. Anyone interested please email me

Poll: Have we lost our "Clean & Green" edge? 🌏

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press just released an article on the proposed plan to pump sewage into the sea, and it’s got us thinking. We’ve always been proud of our environment, but is the "Clean and Green" reputation still earned?

What’s your take? Are we doing enough to look after our backyard? Is it time for a new slogan? 💬
