Our special partnership with Metlifecare continues, and we have some great content to share with readers about people living their best lives in retirement.

This issue we look at some of the worthwhile volunteer roles retirees are filling in our communities, learn about mindfulness at any age, and check out some Kiwi beach travel options while the good weather lasts.

Don’t forget to try out our nostalgia quiz - it’s for anyone who wants to test the Kiwi knowledge they’ve picked up over the past four, five, six or more decades.

Unused Stationery Needed to Help Set Up a Classroom for 9-10 Year Olds

Simon from Meadowbank

Hi everyone,

We’re feeling super proud as our daughter, Zoë, has just landed her first job as a primary school teacher! She starts next week, teaching a lively group of 9-10-year-old boys and girls.

Hi everyone,

We’re feeling super proud as our daughter, Zoë, has just landed her first job as a primary school teacher! She starts next week, teaching a lively group of 9-10-year-old boys and girls.

Zoë’s classroom budget for the year is only $100, which needs to cover essentials like stationery (coloured and plain A4 & A3 paper, felt tips, whiteboard markers, HB and coloured pencils, cellotape, Blu Tack, etc.) and even reading books. As you can imagine, this doesn’t stretch far for a class of 25+ children.

If you have any unused stationery new or old, lying around at home or books suitable for 9-10-year-olds that your kids have outgrown, Zoë would be incredibly grateful to put them to good use!

She’d be happy to come by and pick them up from you, or you’re welcome to drop them off at our place at 19 Manapau St, Meadowbank (just by the train station).

Thank you so much for supporting a new teacher and helping inspire the next generation to learn, create, and thrive! 🎨✨

Warm regards,
Simon Cope

SPCA asking dog owners to vaccinate their pups

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Are you a dog or puppy owner? SPCA are urgently calling on you to vaccinate them against parvovirus.

Are you a dog or puppy owner? SPCA are urgently calling on you to vaccinate them against parvovirus.

SPCA New Zealand say:
We’re seeing more and more cases of the highly contagious and potentially fatal canine parvovirus (parvo) around the country as we face a third outbreak in as many years. Parvo can remain on surfaces for up to a year, so dogs are at constant risk if they’re unvaccinated, or if their vaccinations lapse. Please ensure your dogs are protected against this heartbreaking illness, and book your vaccines and boosters as soon as possible. It could be the difference between life and death.
