TAPAC's Father's Day Fundraiser - Dad's Drag Bingo Night!
📣TAPAC FUNDRAISING EVENING | 2 September | 7:30pm
Due to funding cuts, the future of our free Kids Dance Pacific and Seniors Dance programme looks uncertain.
Kids Dance Pacific teaches children more about the dances, customs and ceremonies of the Pacific, offering valuable contact with the students cultural heritage. Seniors Dance is designed especially for seniors living independently with age-related physical mobility challenges.
Both of these classes have been so beneficial to students mental, social, and physical wellbeing.
So put away your slippers and slip into some sequins for a fabulous night of celebrating dad and a good cause! Drag Queen hostess Shavorn Aborealis will guide you through multiple rounds of the game before wrapping up the night with a spectacular drag show. Our bar will be fully stocked with Dad favorite's - beer, cider, wine, and cocktails - prizes for bingo winners will also be up for grabs, alongside various raffles which you will be able to enter.
🎟Grab your tickets via the link - we hope to see you there!

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
