Napier Tech Band Concert - Belated Mother's Day
Come and celebrate a belated Mother’s Day with the Napier Tech Memorial Band at our next concert on Sunday 19 July at the Salvation Army Citadel, Greenmeadows, starting at 2pm. Tickets are $10 on the door.
The programme has a rousing start with ‘Entry of the Gladiators’ and includes ‘I dreamed a dream’ from Les Mis, ‘Irving Berlin: The Early Years’ and the foot tapping, thigh slapping ‘Hootenanny’, finishing with a tribute to Glenn Miller with ‘King of Swing’. This concert also features items from the growing Junior Band and a trumpet duet from two of the Tech Band’s more experienced musicians.
We are always keen to welcome new players to both the Tech Band and the Junior Band. If you are interested in joining us, email tcuthbert@napiercentral.school.nz or go to our website www.napiertechband.org... to find out more.

SCAM ALERT
Own your Online website is part of the New Zealand government's work to raise understanding of cyber security issues for individuals and businesses, they have shared a message about a new scam that is targeting Kiwis.
Own Your Online say:
We are seeing a significant increase in reporting of ‘Hi Mum’ scams.
A ‘Hi Mum’ scam is a scam where a random message from an unknown number is sent to you claiming to be from a close relative, usually your son or daughter.
The fake relative often claims their phone is broken – which is why they’re contacting you from a different number – and will ask you to do something, sometimes asking you to help them with a payment or to do something by clicking a link.
If you receive one of these, don’t click the links. Try to contact your relative using their normal number which is probably still working.
You can also report these scam messages by forwarding free to Department of Internal Affairs on 7726
