One year on: teaching online cooking, wine and history and our News

New Zealand School of Food & Wine

We watch captivated by the spectacle of those impressive America's Cup yachts foiling at 40 knots across the Hauraki Gulf, and at the same time, it's hard not to have a salutary reflection on the last 12 months.

We watch captivated by the spectacle of those impressive America's Cup yachts foiling at 40 knots across the Hauraki Gulf, and at the same time, it's hard not to have a salutary reflection on the last 12 months.

Almost to the day, we were celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the New Zealand School of Food and Wine with special wine tastings, cooking classes, forage and gastronomic dinner for over 75 guests + our students. Many of our Christchurch team, including Lois, Philippe and Victoria had come up for the weekend. My mother-in-law, June Hay had also joined us from her retirement home in Christchurch. By Sunday 15 March, I was getting pretty nervous about Covid-19 and rather than have June stay in the North Island for a holiday, she returned home the next day. A few days later June's rest home went into lockdown and I counted the 14 days to see if we too had a NZSFW Covid Cluster. Fortunately not! See below some photos as we recalled the 10th Anniversary of the Christchurch Earthquakes.

Do you have bunions and think that surgery is the only answer?

Corrective Foot Solutions

Bunions affect 1 in 3 New Zealanders they can lead to pain and discomfort, which affects mobility, balance and quality of life. That’s not to mention the look of them and the difficulty of fitting shoes.

Bunions affect 1 in 3 New Zealanders they can lead to pain and discomfort, which affects mobility, balance and quality of life. That’s not to mention the look of them and the difficulty of fitting shoes.

We’ve decided to run a special offer for people with bunions - “Bunion Evaluation” for only $33 (worth $85). Offer valid 12/02/21 - 12/03/21

Many doctors and podiatrists believe that surgery is the only way to fix a bunion. This is not true. Bunion surgery is painful and doesn’t address the underlying cause of a bunion, which is generally the way we walk and stand. Ideally, surgery should be considered as the last treatment option for bunions.

At Corrective Foot Solutions, we use a gentle, hands-on technique to effectively treat and correct bunions – which means there’s no need for surgery or orthotics. We use Foot Mobilisation Therapy to correct the underlying cause of your bunion by working on the misalignments in the foot, as well as strengthening the weakened muscles around the joints.

Pop in and see us at 272 level 3b Parnell Rd, Parnell, Auckland or give us a call on 092129250.

Mission Bay fountain comes to life for America's Cup

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

The iconic fountain at Mission Bay will be turned on for the America's Cup regatta.

The popular landmark had its fountain turned off to save water during the region wide drought.

The iconic fountain at Mission Bay will be turned on for the America's Cup regatta.

The popular landmark had its fountain turned off to save water during the region wide drought.

But the Orakei Local Board asked for the Trevor Moss Davis Memorial Fountain to be turned on temporarily.

"The fountain is iconic to Mission Bay and we thought it was an opportunity to have the area looking its very best not just for those in Auckland but those watching the racing from overseas,” said local board chair Scott Milne.

“There is an immediate feel-good factor for locals and businesses, but long-term benefits that could come by attracting visitors to our area in the future makes it a worthwhile exercise," Milne said.

“Knowing that the water in this fountain is reticulated and the only water loss would be from evaporation or from use helped us make this decision as the only additional cost to the ratepayer is the usual costs of running the fountain for two weeks.”

Are you in favour with the fountain operating during the racing?
