Rotary Annual Charity Book Fair - Northcote College
Wow it was all happening today at Northcote College with the unloading of over 700 cartons of donated books through the great efforts of the East Coast Bays Rugby Club. Thanks Guys!
This week members of Rotary Kaipatiki, with the help from other volunteers, including Rotarians from other Clubs, will be setting up the books for our sale starting next Friday 29 September, at 11.00am, and running through to Sunday until 3.00 pm. Note that there will be a $10 entry fee into the hall, for the first hour on Friday only, and free entry after that. There is no fee for the entry to the budget and children's sections in the class rooms.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
60.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
23.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.6% ... It is complicated
Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
