French style buffet & party for Bastille Day - 15 July at Sky City
Alliance Francaise is delighted to invite you to our special Bastille Day celebration!
This special event is the perfect opportunity to celebrate French National Day in a friendly and festive atmosphere. In the middle of the New Zealand winter, we offer you a warm evening of French spirit. Whether you are a Francophone or simply curious to discover French culture, this evening will be an opportunity to share unique moments and create memorable souvenirs.
Come and enjoy the delicious French food at our buffet and enjoy a glass of champagne or fine wine. We invite you to join us from 6pm to share this memorable July evening at SkyCity Hamilton. Bring a group of family or friends - the event is open to all! We will have live music from "La Mer" French guinguette band for the first two hours of the evening.
Please note drinks are not included in the price and are to order and pay at the bar. There will be a choice of French wines (red, white and rose) on offer, and Orangina.

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?

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
