Well done Naomi Shaw

Reporter Community News

As a journalist, one of the most interesting characters I work with is Naomi Shaw. I got to know her in the early 1990s. She was a great supporter of the Hutt News and has also made a significant contribution to the Hutt Valley Sports Awards. This is what she posted on Facebook

"Guess this doesn’t happen very often ... but I am proud to still be part of the Saints Softball Club for 55+ years. My father managed teams in the early days and my three sisters plus numerous nieces & nephews played for the club. Now I have daughter Kiri and mokopuna Denva and Mesha playing in the same team with Mum and/or Nan still active in the club. The truth is ...I wouldn’t be doing it if I didn’t enjoy it so much! Surrounded by good people and still making great memories.:

🪱🐦 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?
