We’re Celebrating 5 Years of Singing!

The Major Minors Children’s Choir was formed in 2012 and we have been singing strong for the last five years so we want to celebrate!

As part of our celebration season, we would like to invite past members to join us in our celebration concert as they have all helped us become what we are today.

The concert will be at 2.30pm, Sunday 19th November 2017 at the Upper Hutt Baptist Church.

We would be able to send our lyrics/ YouTube links prior. We are happy for you to either attend the whole term and learn the full programme, or just learn 2-4 key songs and attend the last few rehearsals – that commitment level is up to you and we are happy to be flexible.

The practices for this concert will start on 27th August 2017.

Please RSVP your interest to hvkidschoir@gmail.com or give Joanne a call on 027 566 7672

We look forward to hearing from you!
And of course welcome new choir members too!

thanks

Joanne and Karen

Waiting 5 mins to be served while one staff member is in a deep discussion with a lady at the front desk, another staff member came out clearly saw the 3 people behind me and there family's and didn't offer to help!!


Poor performance as usual, please make sure you have complaint forms at the counter, there were no complaint forms in the box so people can give feedback. Also make sure the sauna has the little red bucket filled with your solution to apply to the sauna rocks. It's always empty so I have to ask for it to be filled, this will also stop the people I see who apply there own.

5. Small changes

It might sound obvious, but make sure to fix anything broken. Doors that don’t shut properly, holes in walls, peeling wallpaper and leaking taps are just some of the things that can turn off buyers and are relatively easy to fix.

Consider changing the kitchen and bathroom handles. This is an inexpensive and easy way to modernise these key rooms. Also, fix any leaking taps and oil creaky hinges.

4. Garden glory

One easy move which ramps up the visual appeal and saleability of a property is tackling the garden. Try to make sure the property appears low maintenance as this appeals to buyers.

But simple moves like mowing the lawns, weeding the garden, clearing up landscaping clutter, pruning trees, sweeping up leaves and clearing pathways make a huge difference.

Health: Child vs 'Tween" vs Teen vs Adult

Sandra from Timberlea

WILL THE NEW 'CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL only deal with physiological ailments or include psychological ailments? AND is there a difference between child and adult mental health issues.
All specialised areas - so how is one able to access the most appropriate intervention in a timely manner? Is our health system recognising how widespread these issues are? Is it appropriate for a child to be treated alongside adults?
This is an ideal time to hear from those experiencing difficulties.
GO FOR IT. Your voices need to be heard too.
