Poll: Do you support having a non-traditional Santa?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Nelson's bi-cultural Christmas parade has caused a stir and some confusion among Santa's young fans. The traditional white-bearded, jolly man was replaced in the parade by a Māori man representing Santa Claus. Read the full story here.

Nelson's bi-cultural Christmas parade has caused a stir and some confusion among Santa's young fans. The traditional white-bearded, jolly man was replaced in the parade by a Māori man representing Santa Claus. Read the full story here.

Although many people were for the idea, some parents felt "blindsided" that they weren't forewarned that Hana Kōkō would be stepping in for Santa Claus. The parade's organisers have since apologised.

So we want to know your view on this topic. Are you in support of modernising Christmas, or do you prefer a traditional Santa? Take part in our poll below!

Stolen Marching Uniform

Gloria from Avalon

Hi Neighbours,
I live on High Street, Avalon near Guiness St. Last night my car was broken into and a suit bag containing my marching uniform(s) were stolen from the boot of my car. These items are of no use to anyone else what so ever, but impacts heavily on not just me, but both of my teams.

Hi Neighbours,
I live on High Street, Avalon near Guiness St. Last night my car was broken into and a suit bag containing my marching uniform(s) were stolen from the boot of my car. These items are of no use to anyone else what so ever, but impacts heavily on not just me, but both of my teams.
My elderly neighbour also had a prowler shuffling around outside her house at around 3.00am this morning and other items that had been stolen from my car were found at the back of her house.
Items that were in the suit bag are:
*A black uniform jacket that has a red collar and epaulettes and black red and white details on the cuffs
*A red and black partitioned blouse with long sleeves
*A black and white polo sports shirt with Kapi Mana Insteps Leisure Marching Team on the left side of the chest
*A black fabric drawstring bag with a red cord containing a black "guards" hat with a marching girl badge on the front. There was a red a and white feather attachment inside a plastic bag inside the hat and two pairs of long sleeved white gloves.

All of these items have no value to any one else and I would be incredibly grateful if you would contact me if you find any of these items.
Thanks everyone.
Kind Regards
Gloria

Summer’s in our DNA

Every year, summer means an influx of Kiwis to beaches, rivers and campgrounds all over Aotearoa. Kiwis love summer – it’s in our DNA – but if we’re honest, we’re not always very good at it. Stay safe with a few tips from Westpac:

- Don’t turn your back to the waves.
- Always take your lifejacket.
- Tell someone when you’ll be back.
- Don’t drive when you are tired.

And remember if you stray too far, the Choppers can help. In the last 12 months, Wellington’s Westpac Rescue Helicopter flew 415 missions keeping Kiwis safe.

Stay safe in Chopper Country.

Tennis Memmorabilia

John from Boulcott

I am trying to discover old tennis trophies that may have been presented to tennis players in the Hutt Valley. Many clubs have closed and there must be trophies tucked away in attics. These are being collected to provide a history for Hutt Valley Tennis
