Kura Pounamu: Our Treasured Stone and Passengers are on until 11 June.
Kura Pounamu tells the story of hundreds of years of Māori innovation and spirituality with pounamu – New Zealand greenstone.
“Kura Pounamu is a wonderful exhibition that has toured extensively, including overseas to China and Europe,” says Pātaka Director Ana Sciascia.
Meanwhile, Passengers features two bodies of sculptural work by artist Vicki Fanning. It steers technology, history and abstraction into ethereal bodies of glass.
“Although visually different, both exhibitions play with the inherent qualities of glass, and what those qualities can hold and deliver,” says Fanning.

Then I was introduced to a Graeme Dingle Foundation programme for young people that need a boost in life. It helped me build my self-confidence and social skills. We were paired with a mentor, my mentor Tony believed in me like no one else. Because of him I stayed in school, went to university and now have a full time job.

"Kaka, were essentially extinct here in Wellington for over 100 years. Then in 2002 a small group was translocated to our fenced sanctuary Zealandia. Now Kaka fly freely around the CBD. There are approximately 1000 birds now, each with its own personality.
They now also breed outside of Zealandia, and are seen throughout the city. These clever parrots are such entertainers, and are a photographers dream.?

So we’ve just announced our 5th fee cut in 5 years. From 1 April, we’re lowering our total fund charge to 0.30% across our Conservative, Balanced and Growth KiwiSaver Funds and our diversified investment funds. Says Sam Stubbs, Simplicity MD: “Being a KiwiSaver manager involves huge economies of scale. Fee cuts in our industry should be frequent, but they aren’t.”
Simplicity believes in passing on the benefits of scale to our members – and we’re on track for further fee cuts in the future. Check out more details on our blog now!

Sip on one cup of warm water mixed with 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and a tablespoon of honey. Both apple cider vinegar and honey have antibacterial properties that may help soothe a sore throat. *Water should always be used to dilute the acidity of apple cider vinegar.
Many consider apple cider vinegar and honey to be a tasty combination, as the sweetness of honey helps mellow vinegar’s puckery taste.
