Music Director/Conductor Required
Hi Neighbours,
Are there any budding Music Conductors out there who would be interested in taking over the Risingholme Singers choir, founded in 1947. Unfortunately, we had to say goodbye to our lovely Conductor, Khin Wee Chen, and now have to find a new Conductor by February 13th, or as soon as possible thereafter.
We have around 45 members in the choir, of all ages, and we are a friendly and happy bunch of people, like one big family, now without a “Father”! We need someone to look after us and put us in our place!
The choir has performed all kinds of music, which has included music from the 70’s era, i.e. Abba, Queen, Simon and Garfunkel, etc., Gilbert & Sullivan Mikado and Pirates of Penzance, music from movies, such as Fiddler on the Roof, and music from the Messiah.
We rehearse in the lounge at the Opawa Baptist Church on Monday evenings, during School Terms, from 7.30pm – 9.30pm.
An honorarium would be paid to the Conductor, for their services to the choir.
If you, or anyone you know, would be interested in taking on our choir, could you please contact our President, Jill Willmott, on (03) 388 3235 or at jwillmott@xtra.co.nz
🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠
A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

Poll: Have we lost our "Clean & Green" edge? 🌏
The Press just released an article on the proposed plan to pump sewage into the sea, and it’s got us thinking. We’ve always been proud of our environment, but is the "Clean and Green" reputation still earned?
What’s your take? Are we doing enough to look after our backyard? Is it time for a new slogan? 💬

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉
The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
