Rhonda Neighbourly Lead from Hastings Central

Hi there,
If I understand correctly Farmers have Women's Clothing on sale today, (Thursday 1) and Men's Clothing tomorrow (Friday). Then I think other things are on sale for a week.

Hi there,

Study or train fees-free
If you’re planning to start tertiary study or training for the first time you may be eligible for fees-free support.
If you’re a New Zealander or are ordinarily resident in New Zealand and were at school in 2017, 2018 or 2019 (other than as an adult student), you may qualify for the equivalent of one years’ fees-free provider-based study or two years’ industry training in 2019.
If you’re not a recent school leaver, and you’ve done less than half a year of tertiary study or training (whether in New Zealand or in any other country), you may also qualify.

I will try to find the actual link and post it as it has not copied just here properly. The other place to get the info is from your local High School. If the receptionist does not know as for the Person in charge of NZQA/NCEA information to give you a call. Hope this helps. If you know more and can add to this, please do so in the comments. Many thanks in advance.

Kind regards
Rhonda Diprose

CHUCK LORRE PRODUCTIONS, #518

Dear President Obama,

Even though I am not qualified in any way to be a Supreme Court justice, I would still like to be considered for the open seat. Before you dismiss my request as comic nonsense, I'd like to point out that the current primary race to be POTUS makes very clear that lack of qualifications is an advantage. I don't see why that principle doesn�t also apply to SCOTUS. Please know I'm happy to supply my own robe.

Jurisprudently yours,

Chuck Lorre

Poll: Should fireworks be banned?

The Team from ACC New Zealand

Setting off fireworks has become an annual Kiwi backyard tradition, and it’s almost time to break out the sparklers again.

However, critics say they’re dangerous and people are injured by them every year. Fans, on the other hand, argue that all fun involves some level of risk, it just needs to be managed safely.

Last year, we saw a 23% drop in the number of fireworks-related injury claims (171 claims across 2017 versus 223 across 2016). What do you think? Should personal fireworks be banned? Click here for advice on how to use fireworks responsibly.
