Beginner sewing class at Heretaunga Women's Centre needs items please

Georgina from Karamu - Waipatu

I will be taking a beginner sewing class at Heretaunga Women's Centre from 25 July and would really love donations of the following to help please; any cotton thread, large pieces of fabric, if you have a sewing machine that still goes and does at least straight and zigzag stitch that is just sitting in a cupboard, dressmaking scissors, any bobbins, needles, pins, sewing patterns (old ones are fine as well as more recent), even wool, embroidery thread, zips - actually any of the sewing things you have in your cupboards that need a new home rather than being thrown out.
Contact me or Heretaunga Women's Centre directly

Please pass this message on to anybody that you think might be able to help

19mm plywood needed

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Would anyone happen to have any 19mm plywood offcuts to spare? I need some for shelving.
I need two each of 670 x 260mm and 530 x 410mm, so bigger would be fine. I can cut it down.

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

(Susan from Massey kindly provided this head-scratcher ... thanks, Susan!)

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
