Te Kowhai News January out now
Hi all
A little delayed, but better late than never. And a non-COVID related reason for the delay, just for something different. I guess that's what happens when you run something off the smell of an oily rag and a very lean team of volunteers: when one person gets ill, production grinds to a halt.
Pleased to say that we are all back up and running and using a new printer! Eeek! A leap of faith but it's one I hope paid off.
If you also receive a printed version of the publication, give it some scrutiny and let me know your feedback: good, bad but preferably constructive.
Happy new year to you all. May this year be one of positive growth and momentum.
Regards
Amanda and the team at Te Kowhai News

Share your New Zealand music memories...
It's NZ Music Month and New Zealand really has some beautiful songs from artists that we call our own.
Whether it's April Sun in Cuba, Don't Forget your Roots, or How Bizarre or Bic Runga's 'Sway' - songs have a way of unlocking memories and evoking old feelings.
In honour of NZ Music Month, share a New Zealand song or artist that is special to you and explain why.
Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.
Are you a wētā fan?
Carly Hill’s one-year-old daughter Kairi Pullan is the apple of her eye, but there’s over a hundred six-legged babies that can also call her mum.
The Ōtorohanga Kiwi House wildlife supervisor was part of the team that celebrated the opening of a purpose-built giant wētā breeding centre on Saturday, with Hill coming back from maternity leave early to help care for the giant insects.
