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.

The latest tsunami report for the Christchurch City Council offers jaw-dropping scenarios of foaming, angry streams of rapidly surging seawater and some city suburbs wallowing metres deep in it.
The National Institute of Water and Atmospheric study released this week investigates how one-in-500-year and one-in-2500-year South American tsunami – generated by magnitude 9.28 and 9.49 quakes respectively – might affect the city when combined with a range of climate change-induced sea level rises and shoreline changes.
Its findings offer pretty much the worst-case outcomes from a tsunami attacking the Canterbury coast, and conjure images of devastation in Indonesia, Japan and Samoa in the past couple of decades.

He did go far from his new home but the poor wee thing was so scared of anyone that approached him that he just ran, but at least he is home now safe and sound, none the worse… View moreURGENT....
