At English Language Partners in Porirua, new arrivals (including refugees) are learning about our voting system and how it works.
In countries like China and Myanmar, democracy is not encouraged and the concept of voting is foreign. Teachers at Language Partners have to explain to them how voting works and how they can choose how to vote for.
Wellington Registrar of Electors Erin Marsh says research shows new Kiwis tend not to vote; they join Māori, Pacific and young people in those most underrepresented at the polls.

A proud member of the Petone Rugby Club, he was a friend and colleague of the legendary fullback Bob Scott. Here a few facts that you might not know about Leslie.

- As well as rugby, he represented New Zealand at softball and was also a good basketballer and excelled at waterpolo.

- In 2017, he was inducted into the Hutt Valley Sports Awards Hall of Fame by All Black coach Steve Hansen.
- Leslie played 144 games for Wellington, captaining them to a win in the Ranfurly Shield in 1974.
- His wife is Lesley Leslie. Their children, John and Marty, were both talented rugby players.
- In 2007, he was elected President of the New Zealand Rugby Football Union.
- He has had a long association with the New Zealand Rugby Foundation, which helps players who have suffered a spinal injury.
What are your memories of Andy and his career?

You may have noted, there's a growing demand for affordable dental care for adults, especially the senior citizens.
You can personally facilitate the response to this movement by requesting the services of Oratoa Dental in Porirua available to all without restriction.
It used to be available to anyone until a few years ago. Then they started to discriminate saying only people within Porirua will qualify.
Can we join hands to rectify this?

I'm so excited to finally be sharing a project our team has been working on for a while now: First Rung, our first podcast!
First Rung is packed with tips, advice and anecdotes from experts and home owners on every aspect of buying your first home - it also comes with a chance to win a $500 Resene prize pack.
Over six, bite sized episodes, we cover everything from saving that deposit, to sunset clauses, to how to get your newly purchased home ready to move into.
We'll also introduce you to ordinary Kiwis, just like you, who have navigated the choppy waters of home buying in NZ and made it onto that first rung - and pick their brains for how they did it.
We all know buying a home is one of the toughest, most daunting things we might ever do as adults, so it doesn't hurt to get some expert advice and support. That's what we wanted to give you with First Rung.
So give it a listen and let us know what you think - and be in to win that mint Resene prize pack. I can't enter and I'm well jealous!
Disappointed with organisation at the local early polling booth at Tawa Community Centre this morning as they didn’t have enough paperwork for the Mana electorate and Special votes had to be completed. Long delays and queue

at 34 St Johns Tce, Tawa.
Despite the terrible weather the tulip displays are looking beautiful with more bulbs coming into flower everyday. There is much to enjoy so please do come along and explore.
We have opened our garden, entry by donation, as a fundraiser for the final production of Massey University's Creative Media Production students. Our eldest son is a member of this team.
Let's hope the weather is better than last weekend.
Thank you for your support.
