Pohutukawa Singers Concert

Jae from Northcote Point

The Pohutukawa Singers are delighted to announce two performances of their upcoming mid-year concert.

Titled 'Sing Today', the programme features our usual eclectic mix of songs spanning a variety of music genres. From Mozart to Queen, from Bernstein to Adele and much more, our repertoire reflects the wide range of musical tastes among our singers and audience members alike.

Our special guest artist for both performances is jazz saxophonist Iggy Palmero Epstein. Iggy is a music student at Massey High School and gained an NCEA Scholarship in Music (Performance) in 2021. He has a keen interest in everything musical with a special passion for the saxophone and jazz. He plays in a few jazz and fusion bands and welcomes every opportunity he gets to play. We are excited and grateful to have him as our guest performer.

* The first concert;
Sunday 26 June 4.00pm
St Chads Anglican Church, 7 Matua Road, Huapai

*The second concert;
Friday 1 July 7.30pm
Albany Presbyterian Church, 539 Albany Highway, Albany

Tickets for either performance are $15 in advance or $20 at the door and include refreshments after the concert. Children - gold coin donation.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
