South Brighton Voices and Lions Male Voice Choir - Jubilee Concert

Jean from Linwood

South Brighton Voices (formerly South Brighton Choral Society) and the Lions Male Voice Choir in Concert, at  7.30 p.m in the Philip Carter Family Auditorium at THE PIANO on Wednesday 28th June

My understanding is, that the members of the male voice choir come from all over the British Isles, although their organiser and conductor comes from Wales.

This will be a very exciting concert for us, because we are going to be joined in the performance by the UK supporters of the Lions Rugby Team who follow the Rugby games in New Zealand, who will also perform in four other cities in New Zealand.

As the choir celebrates its 70th “birthday”, it also celebrates its new name of South Brighton Voices, as shown on the Poster I have inserted below. 

I understand that the Lions Male Voice Choir’s concert in Auckland has already sold out, and it’s very likely that the same thing will happen in Christchurch, so tickets may not be available on door sales.

Therefore, if any of you would like to go to our concert on the 28th, I can get tickets for you. Otherwise, tickets are available from Lies (said like “lease”) Callander on 388 0617 or liescallander@gmail.com

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
