North Shore Concert Band - seeking new members
We are looking for new members to join our friendly, fun, community band. We practice each Tuesday from 7.30pm in the Birkenhead College Auditorium. Many of our concerts are at large retirement villages and we also have had an annual concert (or 2) at the PumpHouse Theatre for more than 40 years.
We need more brass: Bass, Euphonium, Trombones, Trumpets, French Horn. Currently we have no Oboe so we are very keen to find someone for that position. Flutes, Clarinets, and Saxophones are very welcome also.
The band has a free French Horn, and a trumpet available.
We recently competed in the National Festival of Concert Bands and was awarded a Silver for our performance under the direction of our great conductor.
Come and try us out.

A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜
Do you think you know the answer? Simply 'Like' this post if you know the answer and the big reveal will be posted in the comments at 2pm on the day!
If you multiply this number by any other number, the answer will always be the same. What number is this?
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?
-
50% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
30% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
20% ... It is complicated
Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?
The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.
Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

Are you for, or against?
-
9.6% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-
43.4% I want to be able to choose.
-
47% Against. I want to deal with people.
