In September 2018, Tommy’s was pleased to announce our main charity partnership for the next 12 months – Wellington Free Ambulance. We have committed to donate around $75,000 over the next year.
We chose to support Wellington Free Ambulance because it is the only free ambulance service in New Zealand. Tommy’s believe that in case of an emergency, help should be available to everyone and Wellington Free Ambulance are the ones here for you.
Please can people be careful when reversing and turning their cars. I have had my car damaged twice last week when it was parked (at Kilbirnie and Brooklyn) and no notes were left. I am having to pay around $600 even though I have insurance. The silly season is almost here. Please all calm down on … View morePlease can people be careful when reversing and turning their cars.

Congratulations Korokoro! Our suburb of the week last week.
Well done to all the Korokoro-weanians? Korokoro-nites? Korokoro-stodians?

Well done to all the Korokoro-weanians? Korokoro-nites? Korokoro-stodians?
Whatever the name, they're an awesome bunch of #waterlovers, which is great to see as this summer is just starting to heat up.
We need to make sure we're looking after our water so it lasts all summer long!
Tell your family and friends who live up Korokoro that they're doing a great job.
One of our favourite tips is to collect water in a rainwater tank. This water is a great way to give your garden a bit of extra love when it's hot, and can be used after an earthquake as emergency water.
What tips will you be doing this week to help your suburb take the prestigious 'Suburb of the Week' title?
#ourwaterourfuture #loveeverydrop
Another beautiful day today! With the weather heating up how will you be enjoying the water this summer?
Meet Ruby, a rower and #waterlover from Lower Hutt, who enjoys getting out on the water and thinks it's so important that we look after it.

Critical analysis of culture change
Collision, Compromise and Conversion during the Wesleyan Hokianga Mission, 1827-1855: A critical study of Hokianga Māori, missionary and kauri merchant interactions is a critical analysis of early New Zealand.
The book looks at culture change and Māori conversion during the Wesleyan Hokianga Mission and how with Mission Superintendent, William White, Māori adopted and adapted Christianity and European 'modernity' to suit their own culture.
Author Gary Clover will present his recently launched book on culture change and Māori conversion during the Wesleyan Hokianga Mission.
Wesleyan Hokianga Mission in New Zealand
The book seeks to pay tribute to the scholarship of the late Associate-Professor John M.R. Owens of Massey University by highlighting some of his early New Zealand contact era scholarship as presented in the Hokianga portion of his unpublished PhD thesis of 1969 on the Wesleyan Mission in New Zealand.
Also to inform the forthcoming two day bicentenary symposium on the beginning of the Wesleyan Mission to New Zealand in 1819 to be held by Methodist churches on 24-26 May 2019 at the College of St John the Evangelist, Auckland.
Author Gary Clover, Dame Claudia Orange (Te Papa Research Fellow) and Dr Geoff Troughton (Senior History Lecturer, Victoria University of Wellington) will each speak about the publication.
Light refreshments will be available.
About the speaker
Gary Clover is a retired Methodist Presbyter with a forty-year interest in culture change and conversion in early contact-era New Zealand.
His 1973 Auckland MA thesis examined Māori conversion in South Taranaki. He has earlier published two monographs, and in the Wesley Historical Society and Stimulus journals, and elsewhere.
