A Merry Vinnies Christmas - Donate a Gift

St Vincent de Paul Society Wellington

A Merry Vinnies Christmas offers a shopping style experience to parents and families looking for assistance over the December period. This means giving people the dignity, ownership and choice over what they receive from us.

The Vinnies office will transform into a mini toy shop, where families can choose what presents they want for their children.

DONATE A GIFT: Throughout the month of November, we will be collecting gifts to full up our toy shop in time for December.

To make this possible we are calling on families, corporate teams, businesses, clubs and individuals to donate gifts.

GIFT CRITERIA:
> For ages 0 - 16 years
> Unwrapped
> New or near new condition

Please drop off donations to the Vinnies Newtown office: Level 1, 207 Riddiford Street, Newtown

🎅 The Vinnies Toy Shop will be open from Monday 3 December - more info to come. 🤶

For more information, contact marketing@vinnieswgtn.org.nz or PM the page.

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

(Susan from Massey kindly provided this head-scratcher ... thanks, Susan!)
