A Waikato band has lost $60,000 in belongings after parking in a Wilson Parking building in Auckland.

Members of Melodika​, who sing original Philippines music, were left stunned after returning from an event with the Filipino ambassador to find their car broken into.

The car had contained all the luggage they had brought to Auckland.

UoA Hayfever Study - Participants Needed

Sethmi from Royal Oak

Kia ora everyone,

My name is Sethmi, and I am a student at the University of Auckland. I am conducting a study under the guidance of the Ear Nose and Throat team at the university. We are looking to see the benefit of a nasal spray adaptor in improving symptoms of allergic rhinitis, commonly known as hayfever, compared to a standard nasal spray. This study involves using 2 different nasal spray devices, and online questionnaires. This study does not require any in-person appointments.

Please see the attached flyer for more information and eligibility criteria. In addition to this, please not that you are not eligible if you currently experience asthma and/or take asthma medication.

If you are interested in participating, please email me at sran718@aucklanduni.ac.nz for more information.

Thank you for your interest in our study, I look forward to hearing from you!

Kind regards,
Sethmi
