The Dahlia Kids Book Launch

Jennifer from West Coast Northland

We did it! We wrote a book! The Dahlia Kids welcome you to their book launch.

When: 11 November 2024, 2pm
Where: Ngawha Innovation and Enterprise Park

The Dahlia Kids will host an afternoon with a talk, a quiz with prizes and nibbles and pink lemonade to celebrate their achievements on writing and publishing their new book. It is a 244 page hardback book full of colourful photos and follows their unschooling adventures on their true kiwi lifestyle block on an ex-girlguides campground called Trefoil Park. Here they have set up their own dahlia pick your own business and dahlia breeding programme. Now they have written a book all about their adventures, sharing their dahlia knowledge, New dahlia cultivars, unschooling lifestyle and inspirational outlook on life.

This event is FREE however tickets must be reserved in the shop at www.greenfootedkiwi.co.nz... (a koha for the Dahlia Kids' efforts would be very well received)

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
