Please help us to find a new location

North Shore Community Toy Library NSCTL from North Shore Community Toy Library (NSCTL)

Dear Neighbours,

Our little pressures community charity needs to vacate our current building early next year. Although we are looking for over a year now we can't find something for us. We are after 80 sqm of room or rooms. We are a Toy Library and need the room to welcome our families when picking up their toys and to store our toys. We are flexible whether it is an office or retail building, a warehouse, container building or garage, in a school/ daycare retirement villages or in cooperation with other organizations. We also considerung to build our own if we can find land.
We can pay rent, but the $35,000 standard commercial fee is just too much for us. We are around for 34 years now and apart from a librarian entirely run by volunteers. We give access to over 1,300 high quality educational toys for a small annual fee. This not just saves parents money but is also good for the environment. W
Please help us being able to help our beautiful kids also for the coming 30 years!

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.

I used to own one of Auckland's well known driving schools, now semi-retired. I can offer people my experience for free with all the tips and tricks on how to pass a driving test. Most parents do a great job of coaching their children but don't have the tools to get up to test standard. Tips like how to navigate roundabouts and do observation points, lane changing procedures, flush medians, merging, speed zones, how and when to do the MIB - men in black procedures etc and the list goes on. For more info on how to apply all this, call or text Steve on Ph: 027 3430869.
