The TriDecaTron

John from Dinsdale

I make a few of these when the mood takes me. Very labour intensive. Three drums with 10 faces which turn independently. Like a 000 to 999 odometer, 1000 possible combinations of which 400 are meaningful words, many of the other 600 are syllables found in longer words.

New Zealand's smash hit rock musical That Bloody Woman is coming to Hamilton! New Zealand’s favourite daughter, suffragist, activist and cyclist Kate Sheppard is transformed from the face on the $10 note into a feminist firebrand raising hell and rocking out.

"Kate’s back: a kick-ass role model for equality and people power. May her message continue to roll out across the country.”
- Metro Magazine

"Bursting with wit, verve and righteously rocking tunes”, That Bloody Woman presents New Zealand's founding mother like you've never seen her before; loud, proud and in your face. Leading the charge to win women the vote, Kate takes on the patriarchy, public opinion and even Prime Minister Richard 'King Dick' Seddon."

Book now for a show on 7-9 September at the Clarence Street Theatre. Tickets are selling fast!

Do you use Te Kowhai (or any other community) Hall?

Have you used it in the past?

If you don’t, could you tell us why?

We've got an online survey which includes the following topics:
- The needs of hall users
- What works well at your community hall
- Potential limitations associated with your community hall and suggestions for addressing these
.

The survey should only take no longer then ten minutes to complete.
This survey follows a series of workshops held with hall committees, councillors and users during August.

We want the community to be able to make the most out of their local halls.

So we encourage users and non-users to take part in the survey so that we can work towards maximizing the benefits of our halls as much as possible.

If you have any questions about the survey, please contact Richard Griffiths at Visitor Solutions on (09) 972 1790, 027 459 8872 or rgriffiths@visitorsolutions.net.

Alternatively, please contact Annetta Purdy at Waikato District Council on either (07) 824 8633 or Annetta.Purdy@waidc.govt.nz.

Thanks!
