Hey Neighbourly folk, check out this beautiful piece of writing from Stuff journalist Marty Sharpe.

The rugby gods weren’t ready for Colin Mataira.
Three times he turned up at their gates on the afternoon of July 11, and three times they sent him back. The 45-year-old father of five, and grandfather of three, to all intents and purposes died three times when his heart stopped on the 10-metre line of a Napier rugby field that day.

A 6-year-old Paraparaumu boy walked away after being hit by a speeding car, all because he was wearing a helmet, something his mother had insisted on.

Billy Scott was scootering back from his local dairy with his friends on Saturday evening when the driver, who had allegedly been drinking, lost control of his car and hit him on the footpath. The impact caused Billy to “fly through the air like an angel” before hitting his head on a fence.

Paramedics told his mum, Samantha Millan it was a miracle that he only suffered minor injuries.

Voting is something we all take for granted but for a group of Porirua residents it is something they have to learn.
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.
