In the second of two articles on the Palmerston North City Council s proposed 10-Year Plan, Judith Lacy looks at goals 3, 4 and 5.
If your diary is starting to look a little lighter during these autumnal days, Palmerston North City Council feels your pain.
In its proposed 10-Year Plan, the council says it wants more events held from April to September and wants to collaborate with event organisers to achieve this. The city has an extensive and diverse events programme but many events are centralised over the warmer months.
Michigan’s Extended Benefits program will no longer be payable after April 17 because of the state’s lower employment rate, the Unemployment Insurance Agency announced Wednesday.
Huia Publishers has been a trailblazer for publishing for 30 years, committed to providing a platform for Māori voices and perspectives. Robyn Bargh founded the business in 1991, when the publishers of the time weren’t producing the books she wanted to read, the books that spoke to her experience as Māori. Since then, the Māori-led business has produced more than 1000 books in te reo Māori, and thousands more fiction and non-fiction titles written in English. When Huia first began, books that highlighted Māori and te reo were seen as niche products, and not something that could sustain an industry. But times have changed. There’s a growing surge of interest in te reo, and an international interest in our indigenous stories.
