Kia ora neighbours,

My name is John Karki and I’m currently looking for a part-time job. I do live in Lyall Bay, and I’m a student and keen to work while I study.

I do have experience in Barista and Customer Service but I’m very reliable, hardworking, and a fast learner. I’m open to all kinds of work—hospitality, retail, cleaning, kitchenhand, or anything where I can lend a hand and learn something new.

I’m available on Monday, Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday and also other remaining days after my classes probably.

If you know of any opportunities or need some help yourself, I’d really appreciate it if you could reach out.

Thank you so much!

Kind regards,

Police are asking people to pay extra attention to driveway safety, after a number of incidents recently involving children being harmed.

Driveways can be extremely dangerous, and people need to do everything they can to ensure they keep themselves and others safe, especially where children are present.
Children move around quickly, and often won’t be seen as you are reversing down your driveway.
Always check your driveway before driving in or out, and make sure you know the whereabouts of any children.
Please use your reversing camera if your vehicle has one installed.
Alternatively, ensure all children not in the vehicle with you are accounted for.

If another adult is at the property, make them responsible for ensuring children are well clear of any moving vehicles.
If there are no other adults present, have a ‘safe spot’ for children to stand and wait for the vehicle to stop moving.
This should be somewhere in view of the driver.
Check your blind spots often, and if you can no longer see a child, stop your vehicle and move them somewhere safe before you continue driving.

If your driveway is close to the children’s play area, consider a fence or gates to separate the play area from the driveway.
You should also take the time to speak to your children about the dangers of moving vehicles and remind them that just because they can see the driver, doesn’t mean the driver can always see them.

Taking those extra few seconds to make sure our tamariki are in a safe space when you drive in and out of your driveway can help prevent so much heartache and trauma.
Remember they don’t understand the potential consequences.
