Croquet club turns 100

Reporter Community News

The Petone Central Croquet Club is celebrating its centennial this weekend.
Petone moved from Udy Street to its current site in Tennyson St in 1973. In 1996 the club negotiated the purchase of the Tennyson St clubhouse, an old cottage, from the council for $1.
Originally an all women club, men were allowed to join in March 1976.
To mark the centennial, on April 17/18, there will be a lunch for current members and their partners, and former members.

🪱🐦 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?
