Downtown Desk Ltd, Japanese education agency looking for a Host family.

Students are:
- Between 18 years and 22 years old
- All female
- All Japanese

Homestay period:
Saturday 16 February 2019 to Monday 18 March 2019 for 4 weeks and 2 nights.

We also have 2 students arriving on 9 Sat for 4 weeks, and some other students in March.

They are all from a very strict women's university and their university does not allow them to stay with any single male aged 16 or over even if the male is a family member.

If the host family has any boy (child, relative or homestay student) aged 15 or under, or female in any age while they are staying, it will be no problem at all unless they are Japanese.

The home must be located in North Shore.

All members of the home must use English as a first language.

Hi,

Another new new year is here, and I am really looking forward to it.


If your lawn needs a cut or there are much unwanted weeds in your garden, I'm just the guy you need!

I have been doing this job for over 7 years and have numerous regular clients.

As one would expect, some may move from their place, and for that reason I am again advertising as I now have some spare spaces in my diary.

If you need some necessary work to be done, call me on 478 9078 or 027 723 0975

If I am not here, please leave your name and number and I will respond as soon as I can.

Despite the neglect she suffered for four years, this rescued dog has the most amazing nature. She loves people, including children, and is never happier than when she is hanging out with human companions who shower her with kind words and affection. We are looking for a forever home for Sassy, where she will be spoilt and given the love she deserves.
Sassy has never been socialized, so she is wearing a muzzle on her walks until she learns how to behave with the new dogs she meets. She has quickly learned how to walk nicely on a lead.

We are looking for a patient and stable home for this cuddly girl where she will have plenty of company at home and while she is introduced to life outside of her past prison.

With her soft nature and gentle ways, Sassy has won the hearts of all our volunteers. If you know anyone who may be interested in giving her a wonderful home, please ask them contact Linda at Animal Re-homing Charitable Trust at info@animalrehoming.co.nz.
