House to buy in Somerfield School Zones
We are a family of 4 (plus 2 golden retrievers) recently moved back to CHCH from Brisbane and we are urgently looking for a house to purchase in the Somerfield area before the school year commences. My husband and I have a 12 yr old daughter and a 10 yr old son.
We previously lived in Avonside during the 2010-2011 timeframe and moved back to Brisbane when we were red zoned. We call CHCH home and fought hard to return here and now we're lucky enough to move back with my husbands job.
We are looking for a min of 3 bedrooms, 2 living areas would be ideal, min of 600m2 block and we are happy to look at any updating that needs doing. So if you or anyone you know are about to place your house on the market or thinking about it in the coming months, we would love to hear from you.
Cheers
Karla & Justin
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? π»π¨π
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?
-
38.2% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
61.8% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
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, weβre 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 β and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
π Riddle me this, legends! π
He/She who makes it, sells it.
He/She who buys it, doesn't use it.
The user doesn't know they are using it.
What is it?
