Rolling strikes - how are they affecting you?

Matt Bowen Reporter from Waikato Times

Morning everyone,

Waikato Times education reporter Aaron Leaman is looking to speak to families about the ongoing teachers' strikes.

Strike days are planned for the next five weeks and we're keen to speak to parents about the impact the strike action is having on their households. For example, are some parents looking to take days off work so they can be home with their children? Have some families called in the grandparents for help?

Email aaron.leaman@stuff.co.nz or call him on 027-480-5020 if you'd like to share your story.

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Seven the magic number for Ruakura Superhub warehouse project

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

It’s not quite the seven wonders of the ancient world, but the seven warehouses of the Ruakura Superhub are promising big things.

The new addition close by the inland port on the outskirts of the city will augment the numerous multi-million dollar investments already there.
