Donation of Unused diaries and stationery for the Tonga Schools
Kia Ora,
Due to the tsunami, volcanic eruption and fall-out of ash that has destroyed 300 homes across the islands of the Kingdom of Tonga, Co-chair of the Aotearoa Tonga Relief Committee MP Jenny Salesa has made a personal appeal to Oneness-Heart-Tears and Smiles to collect stationery for the children of these households.
Jenny has outlined eight Government Primary Schools (GPS) severely affected by the volcanic eruption and tsunami: GPS Kolomotu'a, GPS 'Atata, GPS Kanokupolu, GPS Mango Island, GPS Kotu, GPS Fonoifua, GPS Tunga and GPS Nomuka.
Here is a list of other stationery items that would be most helpful:
• Notebooks / paper, drawing paper;
• Pens, pencils, colour pencil, pencil sharpener / and or crayons;
• Children’s books of any kind;
If your company have any unused diaries to donate, we would happy to come and collect it from you anytime before Monday 11 April. Shipment is leaving on the 13th April.
Please do not hesitate to contact Durba 0220 653 719 should you have any questions or need further information. You can also drop off at 20 Kelston St New Lynn.
Yours sincerely
Durba Lee

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
53.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
27.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
18.5% ... It is complicated
A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜
Do you think you know the answer? Simply 'Like' this post if you know the answer and the big reveal will be posted in the comments at 2pm on the day!
If you multiply this number by any other number, the answer will always be the same. What number is this?
Outdated 'Recent Notices in New Zealand'
Can anyone here or from Neighbourly.co.nz please explain to me why we have the so called ''Recent Notices in New Zealand' a.k.a. death notices tab here on Neighbourly when if fact, the most recent death notice is from 2023?
I don't know if anyone has used this tab recently, if ever, I only used when looking for a friend's recent death notice.
If this isn't going to be updated or in fact be what they say it is, 'Recent Notices in New Zealand', then please replace it with something we can all access with up to date information, maybe bring back the groups option - just a thought.
Any ideas people?
