Chris from Akina

If you have read the current notices you will see that people about the country are placing offers of help for those in a self containment situation or in a situation because of the consequences of this pandemic.

If you have read the current notices you will see that people about the country are placing offers of help for those in a self containment situation or in a situation because of the consequences of this pandemic.
BEWARE.
Many are non vetted. Some may not be or do what they claim. This is cruel.

I suggest that the genuine ones will have good feedback from community posted here. If unsure seek more suitable connections, ask questions or phone others.

If there is anyone co-ordinating assistance in your area, review the posts or call them to discuss.

Take care everyone.

I currently would fill them at least twice over... When I spoke to someone at the Council to see whether it was possible to purchase additional bins I was advised that this isn't possible right now, however, they will be open to feedback on this. So please, once you've been issued the bins and if you find them insufficient, give the Council feedback, either by phone, online or in person. Many thanks

Knowledge Bank Open Day

Grant from Raureka

Unfortunately the Open Day has been cancelled - It's basically outside and not too crowded but KB is erring on the side of caution given the age of many of those expected to visit and of the volunteers

Have you found yourself back in the classroom - virtual or otherwise - long after you left school? We’re looking for people who have taken steps to futureproof their careers by upskilling.

Perhaps you’re teaching yourself to code, or maybe you’ve enrolled in an evening class or online course to help your employment prospects. It might have been something you did with your employer’s blessing, or maybe you’ve struck out on your own.

Maybe you’ve struggled to find work and did it as a way to get back on the career ladder, or perhaps you’re concerned about the pace of change in your field and want to stay ahead.

Whatever your brand of lifelong learning, we want to hear from you - email josephine.franks@stuff.co.nz

Well worth a look - is quite a special shop with a special mission. The road works in the street presents a challenge to both shop owners and shoppers - don't be put off by the detour to enter the shop - the workmen are very helpful. Happy shopping.
