Why 2021 will be the year of the long weekend
Hey neighbours,
Good news – 2021 is set to be the year of the long weekend.
Five out of 10 public holidays will be Mondayised (or Tuesdayised in one case) next year, which means if you work a standard Monday to Friday week, you can look forward to some extended breaks.
In fact, once you’ve tacked on the weekends, you’ll end up getting a whopping 25 days off out of those 10 stat days, plus your region’s anniversary day.

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.

Free Session How to find your ideal life coach
A good life coach will help you make the most of your life, and prosper through life’s challenges. For example; building healthy relationships, career goals, change and loss, managing stress and work-life balance. Helping you clear away the clouds to let the sunshine in.
But how to find your ideal coach?
To get positive results you need to feel you are comfortable sharing your innermost feelings and desires. Your coach really needs to ‘get’ you so that so they can effectively support and motivate you in the journey towards the goals you choose.
Fortunately, most life coaches give you the chance to ‘try before you buy’ and offer an introductory free session. Check through local life coaches on the net and check out a couple with a free session to find one you feel most comfortable with.
Costs for ongoing sessions can vary quite widely but some coaches offer a discounted rate if you are on a limited income. It’s good to check.
