The current calculation uses a percentage of net profit from the casino and associated facilities including the Sky Tower, hotel and convention centre. SKYCITY is proposing instead to use a figure based on a percentage of its casino winnings. SKYCITY states that funding under its new proposal will match historical levels.

‘The children are our future.’ It’s a well-loved cliché around the world because it’s absolutely true. The hopes and dreams we have for our communities are only as strong as the children and young people who continue to believe in them long after we’re gone.

This month is all about supporting our young people, to encourage and empower them to not only be the change-makers and community builders of tomorrow but also the best versions of themselves. To listen to their perspective and remember that it’s not just about what we can teach them, but what lessons they can teach us. After all, the recipe for creating healthy, happy children includes a lot of the same ingredients for building safer, more resilient and connected communities.
