To help the Daffodil Month of August run smoothly, we need YOU as a volunteer area coordinator to support our wonderful volunteer collectors.
This role will need to commit a few hours per week in the lead up to Daffodil Day and includes training (via zoom sessions), for the role.

Whangarei Film Society - screenings for Thursday April 2nd
Good People
The film night for our next WFS screening will be on Thursday 2nd April in the Capitaine Bougainville Theatre at Forum North, 7 Rust Ave Whangarei.
At 6pm, WFS will screen the fast and frantic Paris comedy, The French Job.
Our 8pm screening is the heartfelt Italian comedy, A World Apart.
THE FRENCH JOB
France, subtitles, 2024, Comedy
94 mins, Rated M (strong language)
Cast: Melvil Poupaud, Steve Tientcheu, Julia Piaton, Sofiane Zermani
Director: Dominique Baumard
In 2010, five paintings were stolen from a Paris gallery. They included a Modigliani, a Matisse and a Picasso. They were never found.
Inspired by this unsolved art heist, this comedy imagines what may have happened to the stolen works.
Yonathan is a watch expert with a boring and predictable life. That changes when he meets Éric, a charismatic con man.
Things go from bad to crazy when they cross paths with Jo, a brilliant but volatile thief, who Eric has hired for a daring (and insane) art robbery.
Fast and very funny, this heist film blends sharp twists and dark humour to deliver a wildly inventive take on the most infamous art robbery of the 21st century. - IMDB
Showing at Forum North, 7 Rust Ave Whangarei on Thursday, 2nd April at 6pm and Thursday 9th April at 8pm.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
41.2% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.2% No, I enjoy it
-
1.6% Other - I'll share below
Don't overthink this riddle...
I have a silver sole
but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?
