Free Beginning Computing Course

Paul McGregor from Adult Learning Support

Hey, do you know somebody who wants to learn the basics of computing?

It can be frustrating trying to teach your parents, grandparents, friends and workmates. You show them, but they soon forget it all.

And for them, it's hard to learn. Computers and smartphone are so foreign. And people (like you) teach them too fast!

That's where we can help.

Our free Beginners Computing Course helps people with the basics. We start with how to turn it on. How to use a mouse. How to type. Then, we get into things like email, web browsing, documents, photos and all that.

So, do you know anybody who wants to learn about computers, but lacks a computer to learn on and a patient friend to teach them?

Send them our way! The next course starts on Monday 30 July, and runs from 10 am to midday for 12 weeks.

Contact Elise to learn more. coordinator@adultlearning.co.nz or 03 548 3041 or 027 2288 036.

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
