Although the 25-year-old misses New Zealand, he won’t be giving up his Aussie lifestyle any time soon and he’s not alone - Statistics from Infometrics show a steady increase, beginning after the Covid-19 lockdowns, in young people leaving New Zealand either permanently or for an extended period.
What do you reckon? Are lots of young people heading overseas?

Last year was the first time in 35 years Tokoroa locals missed seeing Santa Claus roll down Bridge St after volunteers from the Tokoroa City Lions Club pulled the pin on their annual parade due to escalating costs for health and safety and traffic management regulations.

There’s no clear evidence of culpability for the orange sediment discharge to the Ōhinemuri River other than it being the result of mining activity, according to Waikato Regional Council.
But there are signs that vegetation growth had created a dam behind which sediment had built up.

When seconds count, it can save lives.
We’ve had recent examples where drivers completely ignore the Police vehicle behind them. Other drivers slow right down without safely pulling over, and delay Police from responding to emergency situations. Please help us by allowing our team to get to those in need, so we can save lives.
Top tips when an emergency services vehicle approaches with lights and sirens:
🚑 You are required by law to pull to the side of the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
🚔 If the lights and siren of the Police vehicle continue past you, you can resume your journey.
🚒 Make sure you check the road is clear before moving on.
