Hi - I know a young French guy, who arrived before the Covid outbreak on a working holiday. He's been unable to return because of the lockdown and is getting really desperate for funds now he's stuck in NZ without any govt. assistance.

He's done some work for me and is a fantastic and smart worker who is interested in anything: labouring, supermarket stocking, etc. He's a great guy, fully fit and well, and I highly recommend him but he's stranded with no income. Just hoping someone can help him get though a very difficult time. He's valid to work till Feb 2021. Feel free to call me: 021 784557.

Thank you.

Director-General of Health, Ashley Bloomfield’s strong presence fronting updates about the COVID-19 pandemic, is an example of the importance of being able to command an audience, be an effective communicator, and speak with confidence.

Using self-paced learning, Toastmasters undertake an educational programme that promotes these competencies, and also teaches effective listening, thinking on your feet, leadership skills, and giving and receiving constructive feedback.

Amid lockdown, many of New Zealand’s Toastmasters clubs have transitioned to holding their regular meetings online to allow the continuation of personal and professional development while providing social interaction.
