Adult education driving Waikato’s growth

The Team from Fraser ACE Adult Community Education

Learning doesn’t stop after school or a qualification. In Waikato, adult education is boosting employability, strengthening the workforce, and driving economic growth. By gaining new skills, learners are helping themselves and their communities thrive in a changing job market. At the forefront of this is Fraser ACE.

Fraser ACE offers flexible programs designed for busy adults. With short taster courses one night a week, learners can develop skills without long-term commitments. The low-pressure environment encourages participation from all backgrounds, while practical, hands-on learning ensures skills are immediately useful in daily and professional life.

Fraser ACE is dedicated to inclusivity, offering a welcoming environment for all, especially Māori, Pacific peoples, and others facing barriers to education. Its programs reduce inequality, strengthen community ties, and create a diverse, cohesive workforce. Ready to grow? Visit Fraser Ace or contact comed@fraser.school.nz or 07 846 8624.

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I have two faces, but show you only one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new

(Trev from Tamatea kindly provided this head-scratcher ... thanks, Trev!)

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
