Hi everyone,
I’m reaching out with a hopeful heart. My amazing son Ollie is turning 14 on October 7th, and he has been absolutely obsessed with cars—especially the Lamborghini Aventador—since he was little. Becoming a car mechanic is his dream, and seeing this car in real life would mean the absolute world to him. 🚗💨
I’m a solo mum of two amazing boys, and right now I’m going through treatment for curable breast cancer. It’s been a tough few months, but we’re holding onto the little moments of joy and hope.
So I’m asking:
Does anyone have any connections to a car dealership, showroom, or collector who has a Lamborghini Aventador and would be willing to let Ollie see it up close? Even just a short visit would light up his world and create a memory he’ll never forget.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading and sharing. 💛
Please feel free to DM me or leave me a message here.
With Thanks,
Katie & Ollie

Heart disease kills more NZ'ers than any other condition - yet it's underfunded and the most understood. It's not just an issue for the elderly, or the stereotypical older male, younger, 'apparently healthy' Kiwis are increasingly at risk. Heartbeats has members ranging in age from 20 to 92.
You will learn:
- what actually happens in a heart attack, what is the difference with a cardiac arrest?
- why heart disease is so overlooked - and so deadly, when you don't have enough knowledge
- how to reduce your risk, at ANY age
- where you can find real support, encouragement and understanding
Whangaparaoa Library Pohutakawa Room, at 11:00am this Thursday the 31st August - it could 'change' maybe even 'save' your life!

After reading Flip Grater's opinion piece, Playing germ roulette with our kids’ health, we felt a collective sense of relief - another parent shares our niggling worries.
We wanted to check in with our online neighbours: do you feel the same way? We are all busy, and keeping children home from school is sometimes impossible given other responsibilities. Busy lives and the apparent loss of collective energy around monitoring cold symptoms have led to more students and staff in shared spaces with sniffles and coughs.
But what do you think? Is this a concern?
We want to know: Are there clear Guidelines on when to keep kids off of school?
Should we be having a nuanced conversation about risk management, and how to better support working families?

The pukupuku is the smallest and one of the most vulnerable kiwi species. Only around 2000 birds remain on offshore islands and predator-free sanctuaries, and are the descendants of just 5 birds which had been translocated to Kapiti Island from South Westland in 1912.
The March discovery in the remote Adams Wilderness Area, on the West Coast, is definitely choice news.
Ka pai to the amazing investigation team: DOC biodiversity ranger Iain Graham and his conservation dog, Brew!
We hope this news brings a smile!

In this article, Amelia Wade reports on what it’s like to seek employment when you’re 50+. Many factors - from financial to social pressures - are keeping people in the workforce longer. The reality is that times are tough, even for our most experienced workers: of those receiving Jobseeker benefit, a third are 50-64 years old.
We want to know: Have you felt overlooked in the job market?
Do you have advice for your community on how to stand out in an increasingly crowded job seeker market?
