In light of ongoing discussions about New Zealand's educational standards and the falling educational standards, and in light of the conversation about school lunches and the provision of school lunches for those schools that have families that are most impacted by the cost of living, I was reading a review of a memoir from Trinity College lecturer Dr. Katrina O'Sullivan. She is a lecturer at Trinity in psychology and addiction. She has just written her memoir, and it's called ‘Poor.’ It's not

It has become apparent to me over the last few years that I make a lot of assumptions. In my own defence, I think it's because I grew up in an era where you could make assumptions. That people would do their jobs properly and to the best of their ability, that people took pride in what they did, and they had the good of the community at the heart of whatever they did. Didn't matter what job you did, be it heart surgeon or school caretaker, everybody took a pride in what they did. A story this

With less than five months to go ‘til the election, the leaders of all parties are ramping up the rhetoric. Christopher Luxon, leader of National, spoke to Auckland's Chamber of Commerce yesterday, outlining a trio of new policies aimed at transparency and government finances. Now you would have thought after six years of the most open, honest and transparent Government in history, there would be no need for such a call. Everything would be written large for us all to read, but apparently, there

We’ll start this morning with the Government’s inquiry into slash, and the damning recommendations that found that production forestry should be banned in extreme erosion zones around Wairoa and Gisborne. Limits should be introduced around how much of a forest can be felled in a single year. And when it's spelled out like that, why would you need an inquiry to tell you? It just makes common sense, doesn't it? Production forestry should be banned in extreme erosion zones. Well, yeah. And limits

The Government's announced a cash injection towards the Cyclone Gabrielle clean-up. Ten million dollars of Budget 2023 funding will go to the Hawke's Bay and Gisborne to remove up to 70-thousand tonnes of woody debris from rivers. It'll also fund measures to prevent debris going into waterways in the future. Minister of Forestry Peeni Henare joined Kerre Woodham to discuss the situation.

I can't even begin to imagine how frustrating and soul destroying it would be to go into to work every day, wanting to do your best, able to do your best because of years of training and a desire to deliver. And yet, you find yourself working within a framework you don't believe in, and worse, you believe is harming the very people your life's work is to help. I've picked up a bit of this from police officers right now, medical professionals and teachers. But none of them has stated it as clearly as

A top Auckland private school has so little confidence in the new NCEA Level 1 curriculum it is ditching the qualification in favour of its own Year 11 diploma next year. St Cuthbert’s College informed parents Wednesday next year’s Year 11 students would not take part in NCEA Level 1 but rather work towards the school’s own bespoke Year 11 Diploma. Principal Justine Mahon said several of the school’s senior academic staff had been on Government advisory panels for NZQA’s proposed changes to NCEA and

An open letter to the public and the politicians of Aotearoa New Zealand has called for people to pay more tax, specifically people who are financially comfortable should pay more tax. The signatories to the letter point out that the cost of the Cyclone Gabrielle clean up and the need to future proof our infrastructure against more climate change events, the children living in poverty and misery, the need to fund the social services and payments that assist our communities, if we paid more we would

The National Party has ruled out coming to any arrangement with Te Pāti Māori in forming a National-led government after the 2023 election. The only party that National will be able to work with is Act. Act are they're strong ideologically, so questions have been asked as to how easy they would be to work with in a coalition. Act Party Leader David Seymour told Kerre Woodham a vote for Act over National is a vote for a stronger brew on the right. "Make sure that we don't get another government where

A huge boost for our defence forces, with pay rates being boosted by $4000 to 15,000 over 4 years and a three $128 million upgrade of New Zealand Defence Force assets and infrastructure. I confess, I'm surprised it's happened under this Labour government. It sounded as though it came as a bit of a surprise to the Defence Force and political commentators like former Defence Minister Ron Mark. This year's budget has been pitched by the Prime Minister as a no-frills budget, and rightly so given the

A link has been found between head injuries and violent crime. AUT research shows even a single concussion can increase the risk of violent behaviour in the following decade of a persons life. This goes beyond what happens on a rugby field. Everyone is at risk of mild Traumatic Brain Injuries, from traffic accidents or even hitting their head on a kitchen cupboard and the potential cost to society is "huge".

New Zealand's unemployment rate is unchanged at 3.4 percent. Stats NZ has just released the March 2023 quarterly figure, which hasn't budged since the December 2022 figure.

Looks like Census 2023 is another failure. Stats New Zealand is not on track to achieve its target of getting responses from 90 percent of the population. Still time, but it seems unlikely to meet that target, despite protestations from the Minister of Statistics Deborah Russell that it's still early days. The low return rate has nothing to do with the effects of Cyclone Gabriel, most of the unreturned forms are from major cities. And the failure of 2023 aligns with the failure of the 2018 Census,
