Tickets available for Hope School Production ‘Rock Bottom’!

Sarah Whittle from Hope School Country Fair

Every child from Hope School is taking part in our biannual school production - this year it’s ‘Rock Bottom’ on 29th and 30th November at Richmond Baptist Church on Salisbury Road. Tickets are $5 for adults and $2 for under 12s, call Hope School on 544 8427 to book.

Journey back to the dawn of time in "Rock Bottom" - Craig Hawes' brand new prehistorical hysterical Stone Age rock musical!

Meet The Cobblestones, just an ordinary Stone Age family of cave folk living on Stoney Street, Rock Bottom! But when cave boy inventor Bobby Cobblestone hatches his very first good idea, he's whisked off to work for none other than the beautiful celebrity Lady Lava! Unfortunately, BC is soon up to his neanderthal neck in trouble when he discovers his new boss hides a dark secret that will rock Rock Bottom to its foundations. With mysterious monsters terrorising the town and a volatile volcano ready to blow its top, can BC become a little boulder and hatch a plan to save his family, his friends and his very own precious Rock Bottom? Only time will tell...

A cast of crazy cave folk join in the neolithic naughtiness, not to mention a flock of prehistoric birds, two dippy dinosaurs, a vacuum-cleaning mammoth and a sabre-tooth tiger called Tiddles! With toe-tapping songs to get you rocking like a rolling stone and a puntastic panto-style script as sharp as a flint, one thing's for sure - the Stone Age rocks!

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
