Poll: Should the Waikato get NZ's third medical school?
The bid for a Waikato medical school has been around for a while, but was put on the backburner at the last change of government.
The idea is for graduate-entry students to train over four years, including one spent in a community setting. But Labour and National have quite different views on whether that's what should happen.

What's your favourite piece of Waikato history?
Car parks inspired a milking shed design that took off around the world and became a piece of Waikato District history.
A hundred-year-old church and gravestones from the 1880s will also feature as the district turns the spotlight on its past for its first Heritage Day on April 20.
Lest we forget...
On this ANZAC Day, let's take a moment to remember and honor the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our country.
