We are having a general clear out, so there's furniture (couch, dressers, bedside tables), books, musical scores, clothes, nick-knacks, jewellery, toys, scentsy display table stock (I was a consultant) - if you aren't sure what scentsy is give it a quick google.

The move comes after much public debate on the appropriateness of firearms being brought into schools, including when soldiers taught children as young as nine how to assemble and shoot assault rifles at a leadership exercise in Palmerston North last year. However students can still use firearms as part of shooting clubs and competitions. Click here to read the full article and guidelines.
So what do you think of the new rules? Are you for or against them?
Kia ora!

The Predator Free Peninsula team has been giving out free traps in our suburbs and one of our regular visiting families has got on board with so much enthusiasm that they offered to maintain our traps here at the centre.
Peanut butter prep happened today and a placement of 4 traps around the property has started!
If you would like your own trap and live on the Peninsula then please check out their website www.pfw.org.nz... and get in touch with them directly.
Hope all is well and that the early rise of spring bulbs are putting a smile on your face. I sure am happy about it!

It comes after news that the number of people in New Zealand able to speak te reo Māori is declining. What do you think? Should it be made compulsory? Do you think this will help retain the language?
Neighbourly's own Sarah Moore has started studying te reo Māori follow her journey here.

These classes help us as we age to retain lower body and core strength, remaining active to avoid falls.
No-one is bullet proof, falls happen and some can result in broken bones, pain and long healing times and can also make us fearful of falling again. Losing confidence can really affect quality of life.
Live Stronger for Longer strength and balance classes are growing nationwide. Visit www.livestronger.org.nz and join a class near you, you’ll find lots of practical information, advice and resources on how to live an active, healthy and independent life.
Proudly brought to you by ACC, MoH, HQSC and your local community health providers.
