Chef and hospitality staff desperately needed
Hey neighbours
Do you know about the Village Club? It’s awesome. It’s somewhere you can sit and enjoy a quiet drink or a rousing game. You can win raffles or members draws, and enjoy a good meal. Or at least you could if there was a chef.
It’s a fantastic place and it, like many in hospitality, needs some help.
Are you, or do you know of, a chef looking for a place to cook. Maybe a caterer looking for a kitchen.
Are you a senior culinary student with experience in catering for events, looking for a place to ply your trade and earn some money?
Are you a waiter in waiting or a bar tender looking for a hospo job in a lovely, friendly environment? Do you have your LCQ, or are willing to get it?
Call Raquel at the Village Club on 06 877 8722 or email your particulars to office@villageclub.co.nz
She’s a great boss. I know it. I used to work for her. And it’s a great place. I worked there too.
Electrician needed
Hi. Does anyone know of a good electrician who does not charge the earth. We need a security light disconnected and blocked off.
Thanks

Secure your homes over summer
Police are reminding people to keep their homes secure during the summer months.
Inspector Glenda Barnaby, Christchurch Area Prevention manager, says daytime burglaries are just as common as nightime burglaries.
“Burglaries can be committed at any time of the day, and coming into warmer months there is more opportunity for thieves."
"Although a majority of burglaries involve forced entry through windows and doors, we are starting to see more incidents at insecure premises. Police deal with cases where burglaries are committed in broad daylight, sometimes even while the victim is at home. Good weather means open doors and windows, which makes homes more vulnerable to burglars.”
Inspector Barnaby says there’s a few things people can do to reduce their changes of a burglary being committed.
⚠️ If you’re going outside for gardening, relaxing in the sun, or working in the garage, take a moment to lock your doors and secure your windows first.
⚠️ Do the same at night when you go to bed - keep your doors and windows secure and close your curtains. Fitting window stays means you can get a breeze coming through, while keeping your windows secure.
⚠️ Get to know your neighbours - let them know if you’re going away and look out for one another.”
If you see any suspicious activity, people or vehicles in your neighbourhood, don't hesitate to contact Police.
If you witness or suspect any illegal activity, please call 111 if it is happening now, or make a report through 105 either online or over the phone, if it is after the fact.
