We have a single mattress that we were going to take to the dump, it belonged to our children, now grown up. It has a stain (vomit) which we couldn't quite remove despite our best efforts, on one side only, but otherwise it's in perfectly good nick. (no sagging, rips etc)

If seems a pity to dump it, but it's just taking up space. If anyone could use it , please text 027 7212309 to arrange collection (Westmorland area).

They see so many choices and hear different views from peers and others – it can be hard for them to know what the right choice is.
This free seminar will assist parents and caregivers of Year 11-13 students with skills to help their teen get the information they need and evaluate their options.
The seminar will cover:
- Career pathways
- Supporting your teenager with career decision making
- Choosing tertiary options to suit your teen
- Communicating effectively with your teen
- Key questions to consider
- Top 10 skills/attributes sought by employers
UC Career Consultants will take you through a range of strategies on how you can support your teenager's career decisions.
NOTE: This seminar is NOT about study options at the University of Canterbury | Te Whare Wānanga o Waitaha (UC) – it is designed to help you help your child consider ALL their options, whether this is work, university, polytechnic, an apprenticeship, private providers or other possibilities.
