Join The PumpHouse Community Choir
This year, The PumpHouse’s annual Christmas Carols in the Amphitheatre will feature North Shore Chorale and our fledgling PumpHouse Community Choir.
As the name suggests, the community choir will be made up of locals - that’s you. If the last time you sang in a choir was at school and you fancy another go at it, or if you’re a secret shower singer and would like to share your unappreciated gift with the world then get in touch with us.
Absolutely anyone is welcome to join. You don’t need a trained voice. Our choir leader, Charlotte Nicklin will help you stay in tune. All you need to do is to come to rehearsals for a couple of weeks and be available to sing with the choir on December 18th.
Singing with others has proven health benefits, so it’s actually good for you to join us. Email julia@pumphouse.co.nz for more information.
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?
-
60.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
23.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated

During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
