Cheese Rolling and Trolley Derby Championship 2018
Hello everyone,
We will be holding the annual Cheese Rolling and Trolley Derby Championship on the 10th of March 2018 at the first driveway past the Tokoroa Tip on Newells Road in Tokoroa starting at 1pm.
This event will be the same as last year with Cheeserolling, Egg Throwing, Gumboot Throwing (a holey one, filled with water) Toss the Caber, and the Trolley Derby Championship.
In addition all afternoon the wet and wild water slide will be available at no charge to everyone.
Entry to this event will be gold coin, with a gold coin entry for all competitions.
Fantastic prizes, donated by the local businesses including (off course) the cheese prizes donated by Fonterra in Lichfield.
We have the programme prize of a 45 minute flight over the Waikato, which will definitely appeal.
We will update you all on this event over the coming weeks.
See you there.
Saturday 10th March from 1pm.
Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
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.

Neighbourly Q&A: Renting rights with CAB's Sacha Green
We are continuing our Q&A sessions on Neighbourly. This week we have the amazing Sacha Green from Citizens Advice Bureau New Zealand (CABNZ) who will be answering your questions about your renting rights.
A little bit about Sacha:
She has been working for CABNZ for 10 years and is passionate about empowering people with knowledge of their rights as well as ensuring access to justice.
She helps support the team of over 2,000 trained volunteers who deliver the CAB service in 80 neighbourhoods around Aotearoa by providing advice and support at a national level on a wide range of issues. One of Sacha’s work areas is leading the CAB’s social justice work on housing and tenancy issues.
Whether you're a flatmate, landlord, boarder or flatmate, you can leave a comment below and Sacha will share an answer on Wednesday from 9.30am. You may want to ask about notice periods, bond fulfillment, reasonable rent increases, or even whose responsibility it is to deal with mould in the home.
