Social climbers - the comedy - is touring NZ!

Roger Halls Sparkling Comedy Social Climbers

What do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.

What do you call six women stranded on a mountain in the rain: ridiculous! Or you could call them social climbers … but just not to their faces! Once at the hut, not only do they unload their packs full of food, wine, and a souvenir rock; their hang-ups get unloaded as well.

Torrential rain and a flooded bridge keep them stranded for three days. What they get up to, to help pass the time, raises a few eyebrows and will have you laughing, tearing up and applauding enthusiastically as they bare all.

Of course, it’s not just souls that are exposed, there’s a little nudity, a cracking thunderstorm, explosions, screaming bloody murder, ghostly stories, a birthday celebration, a séance, a drunken party, confessions, meltdowns and revelations that will keep you and your friends entertained throughout.

Perfectly timed for your own social group’s ascent into summer, don’t miss this hilarious play when it comes to a town near you in November.

Hi neighbours – Loud Shirt Day is coming up in September and it's time to use your power of LOUD for GOOD.

Izabella was born profoundly deaf and in the four years following her diagnosis, her parents' emotions of shock, being scared and overwhelmed have turned to amazement, surprise and hope - all thanks to Izabella's progress as a hearing and speaking child.

Izabella loves to sing and dance, she enjoys gymnastics, bike rides and playing with her older brothers. What are her superpowers I hear you ask? She's fierce, adventurous and caring!

Register to fundraise and help deaf children like Izabella listen and speak. You can also donate here on Givealittle. Thanks for your support!

Free ECE Level 4 Qualifications

Hopefully, it's okay to post this again as a noticeboard message so that neighbours can understand what exactly this is about.

We're launching a new programme entitled NZ Certificate in ECE and Care (Level 4), approved by NZQA recently, and will be applying a zero fees policy for the initial run so that those who are having difficulty getting into a course through the Fees Free scheme offered by TEC, can have an alternative option to get good qualifications for free. I'm happy to clarify doubts in the comments below or talk over the phone (021-02380889).

*Glad to see the response so far and it looks like we will fill up one class of 15 (our maximum class size) quite quickly. I will continue to work with those who are interested and see if I can open up a second class if the numbers hit 24 (i.e. 12 students x 2 classes).

Hi Neighbours,

Can you taste a difference between budget and premium milk? There are few things that divide the public as much as the budget versus branded milk debate.

In Stuff's new 'Milking It' investigation, we look at the difference between branded milks, the current milk prices in New Zealand, as well as the comeback of glass milk bottles.

So, what are your thoughts on our country's milk? Take part in our poll, and feel free to share your thoughts in the replies!
