What is Sanskriti?
Sanskriti is school holiday program for children aged 5 to 15 years. It is based at Tamahere community hall and children from all schools are welcome to attend.
We believe in giving children opportunities to do the things they love and enjoy in a supportive and encouraging environment.
Our holiday programme is focused on sports, games, art & craft & practical learning.
Our vision:
Helping children grow into individuals with pride in their own heritage, confidence in their identity and enjoying themselves. Physical fitness, spiritual outlook and enjoyment are equally important for our growth as a human.
Our aims to teach:
1. Traditional games in India that have been known for centuries to enhance visual-motor or sensorimotor coordination.
2. Easy yoga & meditative skills. Learning to be still can help us focus better.
3. Basic facts of what it means to be honest, respectful, caring, confident and responsible global citizens.
4. Mythological storytelling to enhance their imagination & values.
5. Activities that enhance core human values like patience, tolerance, respect, honesty.
In other words, this offers comprehensive and holistic education in a fun learning environment.
Your contribution:
$150 per child for 5 days.
$125 per sibling if older is involved.
$100 per child for 3 days.
Bank deposit.
What to bring: Children must bring enough morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, a drink bottle and a named hat for each day.
If your child has any dietary requirements please let us know.
Derelict Tokanui Hospital site in line for a clean-up
Derelict Tokanui Hospital buildings will be demolished and contaminated land cleaned up so the site can be offered back to iwi.
The former psychiatric hospital, southeast of Te Awamutu, sits on land taken from Ngāti Maniapoto under the Public Works Act in 1910.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
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).
