Hi Neighbours, Like many, Sir Ian Taylor learned only at the age of 68 about the Polynesian migrations across the Pacific Ocean. He hopes a new education website will inspire especially maori and pasifika kids they have innovation in their DNA. Did you know the stories? Read below:
In 2019, French teenager Eloi Rolland arrived in New Zealand to study. He partied, got a job and made friends. But six months later he disappeared without a trace. A year on, police say “his fate remains unknown” and his case looks set to be referred to the coroner. Caroline Williams reports.

A year on, police say “his fate remains unknown” and his case looks set to be referred to the coroner. Caroline Williams reports.
During his time in Auckland, Rolland went to the zoo, enjoyed nights out, worked at a popular bar, dabbled in modelling and, with friends, visited Piha on the rugged west coast.
Before his disappearance, Rolland expressed to his family that he wished to visit Piha again, and on March 6 last year, he did just that.
He has not been seen or heard from since.
“Each day we feel more and more worried and more helpless," his father Thierry Rolland tells Stuff.

1. Have you heard of kiwis supporting local tourism? Tourism get's more media attention than musicians, but our local musicians have been hit by covid too. By coming, you'll be supporting some amazing local musicians of international quality. They can't travel overseas right now - so the world's loss is our gain.
2. It supports the school.
Our son's school does a lot of extra-curricular camps where kids learn about the natural environment and do real-life confidence-building. All profits go to their extra-curricular camps.
3. We're really lucky we can actually go to live events like this. Grab the chance!!!
4. Most importantly, the music is incredible and you'll have a great time with friends and family.
Trio Jackson plays music that is live, moving, warm, emotive, and engaging. People who see them play frequently use words such as "mesmerizing" and "spellbound" to describe their performances.
Literally, they use a combination of guitar and violin to travel through an elaborate array of Spanish, gypsy, jazz and original music - but really, hearing them is like hearing what love sounds like, as expressed through stringed musical instruments.
"OK - enough, I'm coming, when is it?"
* 7.30pm Friday 12 March.
Just say "i'm in" below and I'll arrange the rest.
See you there !!

We've only had one practice so far, so if you've been thinking about joining a choir, we'd love to see you! We're an un-auditioned choir with a mixture of trained and untrained voices, and we sing choral and religious works from Bach and Mendelssohn to Rutter and the Beatles. Our members all love singing and making beautiful harmonies - come and add your voice to ours! We practise on Monday nights from 7.30 to 9.30 at St Luke's Church on Remuera Road in Newmarket. Look forward to seeing you there.
Used just few times. It’s very clean and good condition. Very comfortable for the kids. Bought in USA. Pick up St Heliers.
Floor to ceiling cupboard doors that has some water damage at the bottom. Maybe repurposed to make shelves? The hinges and handles are available if someone can use it.
Hi
Based in Kohimarama. We have a leak in our house roof that needs professional attention. Masonary tiles. We have a 2 story house, and the roof pitch is not too steep.
Any recommendations greatly appreciated.
many thanks
