Why can't we instead have a conversation about paid leave for fathers?
They can currently take two weeks unpaid leave, but unless mothers transfer their maternity leave to their partners, there's nothing else on the table.
What are your thoughts on this? Should paternity leave be offered to fathers?
Hi neighbours, do you love Kmart?
Hundreds of thousands of inexpensive items that pass through the retail giant's checkouts every year, so it's only to be expected there will be recalls – Kmart even has a recalls page on its website, and there are 31 products on the list.

Hundreds of thousands of inexpensive items that pass through the retail giant's checkouts every year, so it's only to be expected there will be recalls – Kmart even has a recalls page on its website, and there are 31 products on the list.
The $55 timber Occasional Chair is the latest casualty, although this is a withdrawal rather than a recall. We don't know the reason for its withdrawal, except Kmart says it is for "a potential quality issue". But what other products have been found wanting?

A new law in Wales says schools are required to have gender-neutral uniforms.
This means that while uniforms can include both skirts and pants, schools can't label these as "girls" or "boys" items.
Should NZ follow suit?

Your contribution really does make a difference to the lives of thousands of Tamariki across Aotearoa!

Congrats to all those involved. We hope you all had an amazing time!
For Ryman Healthcare residents, knowing they’re part of a community they can trust and that genuinely cares, provides real peace of mind.

I'm going to be in Rotorua this weekend and looking for the best breakky spots. I'm a real sucker for a good eggs bene and anything halloumi-related.
Thanks! :)

She lacked self-confidence. ‘‘I had a negative mind set in which I had beliefs that I would never be successful at anything, with a very low self-esteem. ‘‘I made excuses because I had no motivation and little confidence and I let life pass me by even if it was a wonderful opportunity because I was so afraid of the unknown.’’
Not anymore! Prasad, 18, and the youngest in a family of five, is now working as a caregiver while studying a foundation course at NZMA for occupational therapy and has realised she ‘‘could do anything’’. She is the first in her family to go to university. The South Auckland teen has found her potential with the help of our Foundation that aims to transform young Kiwi lives.
