Gerda Takes On Te Reo Maori!
This year Te Wiki o te Reo Māori, Māori Language Week, is being held from September 16 to 23. It’s an important week encouraging all of Aotearoa to use te reo Māori in everyday life. Similarly, Mahuru Māori promotes speaking and celebrating te reo throughout the month of September.
Over the last couple of years, Gerda, a resident at Diana Isaac Village in Christchurch, has grown her Māori vocabulary by attending the virtual monthly te reo Māori classes offered to Ryman residents. This group learning environment is run by Anita Gill from Te Puna Reo Māori, a Māori online learning provider.

Dogs on Meadowlands Park Somerville
Dog owners need to be aware that no dogs are allowed off leash on Meadowlands Park Reserve. No dogs are allowed on marked sports field areas, including in the softball diamonds, at ANY time. Talked with Animal Management who were at the park Saturday afternoon.
Appearently they are doing regular patrols to enforce this bye law. Notice on pole at every entrance to the park.
Don’t want any neighbours to be caught and possibly fined.
