Lest we forget...

The Team from NZ Compare

"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them."

Don't go old-school this winter and just throw on another jersey to beat the cold. You deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about power bills.

Warmer Kiwi Homes is a government grant that offers 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.

And you may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.

Check your eligibility, or check for your whānau, at www.warmerkiwihomes.govt.nz

Hi there all
This is just a reminder about the Beginners' Workshop for Scottish Country Dancing which starts this Wednesday, 26th April 2023 at St Andrew's Church Hall (white church on the corner of Hamilton and Victoria Roads) starting at 7pm. Scottish Country Dancing has numerous health benefits (improved mental cognition, improved cardiovascular health, more flexibility with muscles, just to name a few). It can be likened to interval training where you have 2-3 minutes of good exercise and then you rest. More importantly, you are exercising without knowing it because you are having fun and making new life-long friends at the same time.
Please visit our Facebook page (www.facebook.com/CambridgeSCD) where you can see some examples of dancing and please don't hesitate to follow our page and share our posts. We really do want to grow our membership because not a lot of people actually know we do exist.
