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.

Poll: Do you use the district nursing service?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The health system has been accused of breaking the law amid sky-rocketing demand for community-based nurses in Waikato.

This comes as the supply of district nurses lags behind referral increases of more than 100%, leading to staff burn out and an “unprecedented” service failure.

Do you use the district nursing service? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
