Celebrating French language in Hamilton!
Did you know that more than 300 million people around the world speak French, and there are more than 1200 French speakers in Hamilton from a range of different countries? Not to mention all the other people living here who have visited or lived in a French-speaking country or who have taken classes somewhere.
To celebrate the week of French language and Francophonie from 18 to 25 March, the Alliance Française invites you to visit us for an exhibition on French expressions at our premises upstairs at 114 Alexandra Street.
• Monday Tuesday and Thursday: 5:00 - 6:30 pm
• Wednesday and Friday 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
We will be finishing the week with an "Apéro" on Saturday night, otherwise known as a tasting of French wines, cheeses and cured meats. To keep with the theme we are offering a special francophonie quiz this evening. We would love for you to join us, flyer attached, and tickets are available on Eventbrite:

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).

Tenants trash home, spray graffiti inside and outside
A Hamilton landlord has been awarded thousands of dollars after tenants left a rental property riddled with graffiti, damage and piles of abandoned furniture, then failed to show up to their own Tenancy Tribunal hearing.
The Tenancy Tribunal has ordered two former tenants of the Inverness Ave property to pay $2,585.83 after their bond was applied to cover unpaid rent, cleaning, rubbish removal, lock changes and repairs.
