New Indian cooking course!

Radhika from Redwood

Hi Neighbours!

Term 2 was delicious fun cooking with some fab folks! Photos below of some dishes we made.
Come and join us for Term 3 at Papanui High School's Night Classes - we are now also learning how to make (and eat!) delicious Indian street food. Street food in India is a cuisine realm by itself - fast food but with fresh and mostly unprocessed ingredients, with lots of vegetarian, DF, GF and vegan options. The flavours are mouthwateringly big and bold, yet the dishes are made from humble everyday ingredients, all easily available here.
Think pakoras, puffed rice mixes, kabab wraps, chickpea salad, spicy chutneys and more! Learn about spices and how to use them while making popular favourites, improve your cooking skills and impress your friends and whanau :)

Course details -
INDIAN STREET FOOD -
Thursdays 7-9pm, starting 5 Aug
Duration - 7 weeks
Course fee - $140

For further information and enrolment in this course, please visit the school website - www.papanui.school.nz... or email Barbara Roper rpb@papanui.school.nz or telephone the office on 033520701

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.
