The lunch wasn't a grand affair, we had no celebs join us but I did have two responses to my request. Thank you Paul Metcalfe and friend for taking time out of your busy working day as a builder to come along and support our efforts. Thank you to others from local schools who also offered.

I would also like to add that now is a great time to get your diabetes under control and before the silly season starts! We all know what its like "I'll just have one...." and then hey presto its January 13th and you have put on 2-3kg which you can't budge. Talk to us now about mindful eating in diabetes - 07 5713422

We're all busy - so how can we get our kids out of the car on the school run?

Jonathan Milne Reporter from Sunday Star Times

Since the 1980s, the proportion of children being dropped off in a car has doubled to nearly 55 per cent. With it has come worsened air pollution, greater congestion, and increased danger as more kids are involved in road accidents.

With it has come worsened air pollution, greater congestion, and increased danger as more kids are involved in road accidents. Worse, it has undermined our community cohesion: Schools can and should be the hearts of our communities
.

We're backing schools to set up walking buses and other solutions, with parents and volunteers helping local kids get to class safely.
We wrote to the nation's mayors pleading with them to lower speed limits outside schools, and many have come back to us with expressions of support. We talked to well-known New Zealanders with school-aged kids, and they united behind the campaign.

You can get involved too. We know people are busy, so the Sunday Star-Times and Neighbourly are encouraging families to choose one day a week when they and their kids walk, scoot, cycle - even ride a horse if that's what works for you!

I've chosen Mondays as the days I'll cycle to school with my 6-year-old son. And Neighbourly has set up a special pledge page, where you can choose a day when you will try to Foot It with your kids, talk with others doing the same - and go into the draw to win one of 50 Micro scooters. www.neighbourly.co.nz...

Next week is Diabetes Awareness week and Diabetes HELP Tauranga and the Blind Foundation, as part of their EYES ON DIABETES MINI EXPO, are hosting a light lunch for some VIP's (long-standing members).

We have approached a number of local entertainers but sadly have not been able to find someone to provide some background music & provide about 30 mins entertainment to about 40 older adults. Can you help, or do you know someone who can?
