From the editor
Kia ora,
And a happy new year to you all.
The team at Rotorua Review do hope you had a great Christmas and holiday break spent relaxing with friends and family.
I certainly did - and enjoyed some wonderful time with the South Island whanau in sunny Christchurch.
It was just what the doctor ordered - time out to recharge the batteries and prepare for another year ahead.
Already, things are getting busy with so much going on - it’s shaping up to be an exciting 2018 and the Rotorua Review is looking forward to bringing you the news from our fabulous communities.
Remember to keep in touch to keep us in the loop - I’m only a phone call or an email away - and I’d love to hear from you.
Phone 027 204 29458 or email julie.kaio@fairfaxmedia.co.nz
Have a great week,
Julie :)
