Good neighbour is looking for some help with school lunches 1 hour/day. If you are interested, you can contact Christien. Her details are at the bottom of this mail:

Good Neighbour is providing Gate Pa School with healthy school lunches starting on Monday 2nd November. Our goal is to create opportunities for whanau involvement in the classroom. We are asking for initial volunteers to get this up and running until we get parental commitments.



The time commitment is about 1 hour per day

12:45pm Set up lunch trolley at school
1:05pm Lunch service to one class (20-30 kids)
1:20pm Clean up with the Children
1:30pm Children back in class


This is a Monday to Friday lunch time event during the school term. We need one parent/caregiver in each classroom every day to serve lunch to the class and help them with the clean-up (kids have to wash their own dishes). With 18 classrooms we are looking to fill approx. 90 volunteer slots per week.



If you like being around children while encouraging them to eat well and enjoy being part of change then let me know the day/s you can help. We start lunches on 2 November







We have run a trial at Gate Pa School and it was a lot of fun. It was exciting to see children who said “I don’t like that” come back with nacho sauce all around their mouth asking for seconds.



This is a great opportunity to get involved in our community on a short term basis as we are hopeful to have a full roster of trained up school parents on board for Term 1 2021. However, if you are keen to continue into next year we would be happy to have you on board.



Don’t worry - Full training will be provided.



It would be great to hear from you if you are interested in helping with healthy school lunches. It can be a commitment of just one day a week or more if you can.



To register your interest, please contact Lee Pearce 022 162-2921 or Simone Gibson 027 352-3386 or email simone@goodneighbour.co.nz. We would love to hear from you.

Hi! I'm so excited to finally be sharing a project our team has been working on for a while now: First Rung, our first podcast!
First Rung is packed with tips, advice and anecdotes from experts and home owners on every aspect of buying your first home - it also comes with a chance to win a $500 Resene prize pack.
Over six, bite sized episodes, we cover everything from saving that deposit, to sunset clauses, to how to get your newly purchased home ready to move into.
We'll also introduce you to ordinary Kiwis, just like you, who have navigated the choppy waters of home buying in NZ and made it onto that first rung - and pick their brains for how they did it.
We all know buying a home is one of the toughest, most daunting things we might ever do as adults, so it doesn't hurt to get some expert advice and support. That's what we wanted to give you with First Rung.
So give it a listen and let us know what you think - and be in to win that mint Resene prize pack. I can't enter and I'm well jealous!
