Sam was disengaged and struggling to find meaning in his daily routine of attending school, doing chores, and playing video games. Then, he was invited to join a Graeme Dingle Foundation programme, which introduced him to the outdoors.

After the wilderness adventure, Sam became more confident and self-assured, and his teachers noticed a positive change in his sociability and willingness to ask questions in class.

He developed a "give-it-a-go" attitude. Inspired by his newfound passion for the outdoors, Sam plans to join the New Zealand Defence Force after finishing school.

Hi everyone i was wondering if anyone could help. I have a rescue dog three years old who doesn't have any manners and no ears.
When she goes on walks she pulls, tows and does her best to upset her owners and others on her walks more like run. We have tried everything. Even sending on a dog outing with other like minded dogs. but that didn't change her. Is there anyone out there that can straighten her out for me. I don't want to have to give her up to a fourth home. She started her life in the pound and has never had her training completed. As there are things like sit and wait until permission given to eat, she will do. Recall sometimes. She has a lively nature and is very loving. Appreciate some help.

We have a new volunteer programme that we're very excited to share with you! In this role, you will offer social support to people claiming asylum in the Auckland region through:
• Providing local orientation and information about the area/city/country
• Assisting clients to connect with other services and agencies
• Spending time together and getting to know more about each other and your cultures
• Advocating for people to access their entitlements if needed

Requirements:
You’ll need to be familiar with your local area, open to working cross culturally, be resourceful and good at taking initiative.

Comprehensive training will be provided, including key concepts relating to asylum, intercultural communication, and entitlements.
Training takes approximately 12 hours and is delivered over several evenings and/or weekends.

Police vetting, reference check, and pre-training interview are required for this role.



Time commitment:
Volunteers need to commit at least a few hours a week, but there are no set time shifts. The time you spend with a family/individual will vary week to week, so you’ll need to be flexible and work as part of a team.

Poll: Should all homes have curtains?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Even well-insulated homes can lose up to 45% of the room's heat without having adequate curtains. This is why Curtain Banks are in high demand at this time of year.

A petition is circulating to get curtains added as part of the Healthy Homes Standards in the hopes of helping renters avoid living in cold, damp conditions. Do you think curtains should be mandatory for New Zealand homes?
