Howick Croquet Club School holiday program Mon 20th - Fri 24th January

Vanessa from Sunnyhills

Howick Croquet Club are working really hard to introduce the sport of croquet to the youth in our local area. We are running a school holiday program from Monday 20th - Friday 24th January from 1 - 3pm. As we have received a grant from KIWISPORT, this covers the cost of youth green fees and mallets for this program. If you are aged between 12 - 18 and want to find out more about croquet, come along on those days to our clubrooms at 67 Millhouse Drive, Howick. Who knew that croquet is a very strategic sport and can help youth who have challenges like anger management, some physical disabilities, ADHD, PTSD. It is a non gender sport for all ages.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
