Poll: Are uniform rules at schools sexist?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In celebration of the Lunar New Year of the Rabbit, the Oriental Brush Calligraphers mainly from Korea are holding their exhibition at MAC this year.

MAIN GALLERY: Auckland Calligraphers' group, Yeon Hyang Hoe, proudly display their 19th exhibition of brush artworks to welcome the Lunar New Year of the Rabbit, 2023. Yeon Hyang Hoe aims to promote Korean culture and calligraphy to reach out to the wider community in Aotearoa. During this annual, much-anticipated display, gallery visitors can use traditional materials to write inspirational phrases or poems.

HEWSON GALLERY: Gallery visitors will have the opportunity to view a special display of rare decorative Korean Calligraphy folding walls from a personal collection belonging to well-respected Korean Calligraphy tutor Seung-jae Yu. Some of these scrolls date back to the 19th century and provide a glimpse of the clash between conservatism and the enlightenment group facing the challenging social, political and cultural wave from the West.

You are welcome to come and meet the artists at the opening event on 28 Jan at 2:00pm.

Live independently while your loved one is cared for in the same Ryman village.

A full life for Helen is one that is surrounded by family. When she first moved to the village, Helen’s husband John was being cared for elsewhere. Now that he is living at the same village, it brings Helen and her family so much happiness and reassurance.

“All the family cried when he moved in. They were so happy because it was such a beautiful thing to have him close by.”

WOF current. Rego current. Body is in reasonable condition with some dings and scratches after 15 years. Left rear door in particular has a shallow dent and some scratches (see photo for full disclosure). Driver's side mirror also has peeling paint (see photo). Interior also some wear but basically sound. Mechanically, car is in excellent condition, and has a good service record with no problems at all except that the original hybrid battery failed after 15 years, and was replaced in July 2022. I have the receipt for the new battery available. The replacement should last another 10 years. Replacement battery alone costs $3000+, so you get that in effect at a bargain price. Available last day of this month (January).

Price: $4,900
