KidsCan Fundraising Garden Party on 18 March needs support

Georgina from Karamu - Waipatu

The KidsCan Garden Party fundraiser needs support with people attending it but also we really would love some donations in these ways * new items for a raffle basket
* pickles, jams, preserves to sell
* ingredients to make sandwiches to sell on the day
* another group or 2 of children to perform (cultural, dance, music but able to be performed outside in the garden)
* another stall or 2 preferably selling crafts, arts, plants or similar

All funds will be going straight to KidsCan www.kidscan.org.nz...

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
