Do you know this woman, or the house in the photo?
Rachel Mason is crossing the globe on a mission to track down the farmhouse her mum, Margaret Parkin, lived in near Hamilton in the late 1950s.
“I’d just like to find the house, just to drive by and say that’s where my mum lived”.
Mason will travel from Sheffield to New Zealand in March searching for information about her mother’s life in Hamilton. She is reaching out to Waikato Times readers for information about where her mum lived.
Waikato Hospital needs to be open about mistakes
EDITORIAL: For all the travails assailing public hospitals, transparency should not be one of them.
Hospitals used to own up to their mistakes in a very public fashion. Each year they published a list of “Sentinel Events” — the most serious incidents involving patient harm.
That window of openness has slammed shut.

Childrens Arts Therapy
Children’s art therapy gives your child a safe, calm place to express emotions, build confidence, and develop resilience through creative activity. Our children’s art therapy sessions support kids who experience worries, stress, social challenges, or big emotions, offering steady guidance and space to explore at their own pace.
These small-group sessions are designed for children who benefit from a peaceful environment where they can make art, talk about their feelings, and try new ways to solve problems. Each week blends creativity and wellbeing in a warm, supportive setting. Many families find art therapy especially helpful during times of change, pressure at school, or emotional overwhelm.
