Hey neighbours,

All New Zealand police officers will receive new stab- and bullet-proof vests in a $20 million roll-out over the next three-and-a-half years.

The current vests - which were introduced in 2006 - are stab-proof, but special vests are worn by any officers involved in firearms call-outs.

They have passed their warranty, but remain "safe and fit for purpose", says Police Commissioner Mike Bush.

What do you think about the new armour? Are police officers safe using the current vests? Are you surprised the existing vests aren't stab- and bullet-proof?

Residents staff and Patients had an extremely enjoyable time over Xmas and New Year with special dinners enjoyed by all mid December and another on the day for those who spent Xmas with us. Many were able to enjoy the special day with their family.

The excitement of that time has now transferred to anticipation of moving into our new facility with the build scheduled to be finished in February. Residents are now able to think about where their new room will be and the extra space they are going to have. Heating in the complex will be easier to manage with roof lanterns and extended roof providing improved heat control - always an issue for the elderly.
