What do you want to see on the inside front cover in January?

The Editor from Te Kowhai Newsletter

Hi Te Kowhai!

On the inside cover of the November issue of Te Kowhai News we'll be featuring locally made gifts and stocking filler ideas along with details of the clever people who make them and where to buy them.

What do you want to see on the inside front cover in January? We've done summer photos and holiday snaps. Should we do the same again or something different? What would you like to see?

Answers in the comments below, thanks.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

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.
