Administration Professionals Day Celebration - 21 April @ 6pm
We would love administrators (including EA's, receptionists, finance and payroll staff) across Palmerston North and Manawatu to join us at The Verdict Cafe, to acknowledge their role and the value they add to the success of the organisations the work for. Does this sound like you? Or are you a manager who would like to acknowledge your administrator/s? We'd like you to come along.
The key note speaker will be Sharon Dagg who will speak on "Overcoming Adversity" and recently become the first woman amputee to complete the Coast-to-Coast multi-sport event and will inspire us to move ahead despite the challenges that come our way.
Drinks and hors d'oeuvres, fabulous food and great spot prize draws throughout the evening!
Great news! Ticket sales extended out to Sunday 18 April (limited to available capacity)!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
