Make a SPLASH in MARCH and help save the Carterton Indoor Pool!

Catherine from Greytown

Members of the CARTERTON INDOOR POOL PROJECT invite swimmers from all around the world to make a splash and participate in the Central ITM Big Swim during MARCH. The event is part of a major community fundraising effort to help save the Carterton Indoor Swimming Pool.

The aim of the CENTRAL ITM Big Swim is to collectively swim a cumulative total of one million metres to raise one million dollars. We're doing this through individual efforts and challenge events, as well as a postal swim, which can be done at any time in March from anywhere in the world.

Please support this fundraiser by helping us get the word out, or even take part yourself, to ensure the Southern Wairarapa community has access to an all year round swimming facility.

Go to: www.thebigswim.nz... for more information on this great initiative!

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
