New principal appointed at Rangiora High School
Rangiora High School’s new principal won't have to move far when he takes up the mantle later this year – his current job is just 12 kilometres away.

He will replace outgoing principal Karen Stewart, who is retiring.

Chickenwire needed
Hi. I need about 8 sq metres of chicken wire. If you have some lying around that you don't need, I'm happy to take it off your hands, deliver a boot full of recyclables to the tip or pay a bit for it. Please let me know. Thanks.
