First up - The amazing Dee Paranihi!
As a loved employee of the Graeme Dingle Foundation, Dee couldn’t pass up the amazing opportunity to explore Vietnam and help kids across Aotearoa at the same time. "We can all learn to believe what we have inside is greater than the things that stand in front of us, but we need to teach our kids this, we are not necessarily born thinking that way."

Everyone in Marlborough has been shocked by the horrific events of last Friday. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of the Christchurch attacks.
Each month as I welcome new citizens to Marlborough, including members of the Muslim community, I thank them for making New Zealand their home.
As the Prime Minister said: “they are us”.
The attacks struck at the heart of the South Island and New Zealand, one of the world’s most peaceful and friendly nations.
On behalf of everyone in Marlborough, I have conveyed my thanks to the Police and the emergency services for their incredible bravery and dedication.
Kia kaha.
Mayor John Leggett

Hi Neighbours, not long now until Blenheim gets its very own Kmart. I can only imagine what the queues will be like on the first day. But what do you think of their opening hours, 8am to midnight? Feel free to comment too, but include NFP if you don't want it used in print.
