Fun exercise class for Older Adults in the Community
Commencing Friday 19/2/21 my Sit2Fit class will be held at MacFarlane Park Centre which is located at 19A Acheson Ave, Shirley (off Hills Rd, tucked behind Kindergarten) so staying close to the community and “Shirley you’d love to join me there”. This is a lovely venue with natural light overlooking the park with plenty of off street parking. Double bonus is that MacFarlanes on the Park Cafe is open between 9.30am-12pm on a Friday where you can get cheap and cheerful morning tea after class.
Sit2Fit
A fitness class for Strength & Balance accredited by ACC Live Stronger for Longer and is designed for +65 yet is open to anyone who struggles to get up and down off the floor as we all need some extra support at times. It’s fun, friendly and social. 45 minutes of fun exercise and then stay for a cuppa and chit chat at the cafe after.
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!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
34% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
66% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)

How much does it cost to join AEA?
There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
