LAST CHANCE TO GET IN THE DRAW
LAST CHANCE TO GET IN THE DRAW
Thank you so much to the community members that have supported us so far by purchasing a ticket in our fabulous Mothers Day Raffle. There is now less than two days to wait until you find out if you will be one of our lucky winners. We're all off to the local Fire Station on Thursday morning so our tamariki can enjoy the fire trucks, and one of our amazing firefighters can carry out the draw.
So if you haven't already got a ticket, this really is your last chance. To be in the draw we need any online funds to be cleared in our account by tomorrow night. But for those in Waiuku, we will be in the Town Square tomorrow between 11am and 1pm if you want to pop by and pay cash, or just come and say hi. You'll find us by the big yellow flag. Tickets are just $5 each or 3 for $10.
You'll be supporting a good cause. All funds are going towards assisting us to build a safe new fence for our Tamariki.
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41.5% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
56.9% No, I enjoy it
-
1.7% Other - I'll share below
Don't overthink this riddle...
I have a silver sole
but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?
