Auckland can build rockets - so why can't it afford Santa?

Todd Niall Reporter from Auckland Stuff

Hi Neighbours, Love him or hate him, downtown Auckland's (and briefly Manukau's) 5-storey Santa appears doomed because of cost, after nearly 60 years. Should he be saved, and by whom? Read the story below:

After Armistice: dealing with the effects of war

The Team from Auckland Museum

As we commemorate the 101st Armistice Day, it's timely that we reflect on the aftermath of the First World War; not only the massive scale of loss, but also the ongoing suffering experienced by those who returned from the first industrialised war.

As we commemorate the 101st Armistice Day, it's timely that we reflect on the aftermath of the First World War; not only the massive scale of loss, but also the ongoing suffering experienced by those who returned from the first industrialised war.

Arriving in back in Wellington, Colonel Evans pointedly reminded the soldiers of those left behind: “Remember,” he said, “When you go ashore you are not heroes. The heroes lie in France”. Having lost their comrades in the thousands, the soldiers hardly needed to be reminded of their 'luck' in making it through. Yet for those who survived, the physical and mental toll of the war was immense and for many unspeakable. Each service person confronted the psychological and emotional impact of a war unprecedented in its violence in their own personal way.

One soldier who suffered through his war service was Private Ivor Norman (Norm) Fleet 31249. A bushman who enlisted in Taumarunui, Fleet fought with the Wellington Infantry Regiment and received gunshot wounds to both legs during a clean-up operation at Bellevue Spur on 22 October 1917. His right leg was later amputated and he eventually returned to New Zealand where simply carried on with his life, marrying Elsie Petley in 1928, building his own house and forging a long and productive career. Norm rarely spoke of the war and relatives only recall seeing him in tears as his nephews left for the Second World War; a small clue to the pain that returned servicemen held inside. Like Norm, millions suffered silently in the aftermath. Today we honour their service and acknowledge the immeasurable suffering that came from it.

Lest we forget.

Something fishy going on here🐟🐟

Fiona from Henderson

Now this is freaky. A fish with a 'human face'
This looks like someone I know and also someone I used to know.
If this is reincarnation, then I think I'll pass.
May be caused by all the toxic chemicals and rubbish that's in the water or maybe this is indeed a freak of nature. … View more

🤸‍♀️ Its easy to take things for granted.

🤸‍♀️ Its easy to take things for granted.

🤸‍♀️ Let's take waking up in your bed and standing up for instance. Balancing upright, on two feet, without falling over.

For some this is a miracle.

🤸‍♀️ In our daily lives, getting up to go to a job and driving to work seem ordinary that we take for granted.

🤸‍♀️ It is only when we get bedridden, or too sick or injured and we lose our precious capabilities that we begin to realise how awesome it is to be simply moving.

🤸‍♀️ This amazing gift of movement is worth using to it's full potential. Use it to try new things and get moving. Get off the couch and away from the tv as much as you can. Learn a sport or join the gym.

Express gratitude and look after your amazing body. It's worth more than anything you'll ever buy.

Hi Neighbours!

The Minister for Seniors Tracey Martin has released the new strategy for our ageing population, Better Later Life – He Oranga Kaumātua 2019 to 2034.

Like the rest of the developed world, New Zealand has an ageing population. This means there are some things we must consider and prepare for as a country.

Better Later Life takes a fresh look at what is required to ensure New Zealand is a great place to age and achieve the vision of making sure older people lead valued, connecting and fulfilling lives.

The strategy's key areas for action will be used to guide the priorities of what needs to happen in our action plan.
