Message from President Clive Couldwell - Remuera Lions Club

The Team from Remuera Lions Club

A Message from President Clive Couldwell about last night's Remuera Lions Junior Citizenship awards.
As I returned home from this event 30 or so minutes ago., I thought. . . . WHAT A FANTASTIC EVENING!!
The hall was packed with lots of happy people.
The Dilworth Junior Campus Kapa Haka Group were very enthusiastic with their Powhiri and Waiata.
And our guest speaker, Brendan Dooley. SOMETHING AGAIN!!
In his short life he had to handle some adversity but had risen above it all and made a very successful career in magic – not only in New Zealand but in Australia, Asia and the USA, and he will perform this year in our annual Magic Show just before Christmas.
I can’t fully describe the tricks he showed but, in magic, everything is possible – even the impossible.
Brendan's message was very positive!
Lots of thanks to everyone involved.
Most importantly to the parents for raising such amazing children.
We also would like to thank Peter Vos, Principal of Dilworth Junior School and Huhana Rowland, for organising everything at the School for this event.
Thank you too, to all the School Principals who nominated these Amazing Children! Well done!
Remuera Lions can be justly proud of what we achieved this evening

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
