Entertain the kids this weekend!

Armistice in Cambridge

Held at Karapiro, Armistice in Cambridge is a weekend celebration of NZ’s military heritage. Kids of all ages can row a Navy cutter, try archery, test their knot skills or fight a mock battle with paper swords and flour bombs in the WW1 trench!

This Saturday 11th and Sunday 12th November the event runs for two full days. If the kids perform 7 of the 20 activities on site (more than half of which are free) they can win a tank badge. Entry is $15 for adults and $5 for 12 and under.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
