Papamoa College 'I AM' show

Liz from Papamoa Beach

Come along and see an incredible show.

This year the Performing Arts Department of Papamoa College have organised a show, I AM, that is to be performed on Monday the 28th and Tuesday the 29th of August in term 3. The tickets are $10 adult and $5 child/student and can be purchased from Papamoa College school office. The show starts at 7 p.m. and goes for one and half hours.

I AM is a story about surviving against all odds, and each act is tied together to reflect this. This show ‘I AM’ is a collation of scenes, songs and theatrical performances that explores the theme: I AM a survivor, I AM important, I AM a warrior, I AM beautiful. The show has a cast from year 7 (11 year olds) through to year 13s (18 year olds) .
Hope to see you all there.

Unelected commissioners recommend they stay in power

Pat from Welcome Bay

Interesting responses to my post. Two in particular piqued my interest. Suzanne Williams and her comments about whinging about everything-Suzanne it is not about whinging. It is more about raising concerns about an undemocratic regime forced on us and then seeing the commissioners wanting to keep their sinecure. Greg Reardon "I vote to keep the commissioners"-Greg the point is that you do not have a vote. Look I get it-democracy is imperfect. Some of our previously elected councillors were rubbish-ego driven and feeding from the trough (not unlike our commissioners). But it is what we have got. It is better to have an imperfect democracy than an unelected and unaccountable cartel of commissioners who say "we know what is good for you".
