Tuneful delights The Te Kupenga Preschool made a trip to the Waterlea Rest Home last Thursday, to perform a selection of their favourite songs. The residents were delighted by the children’s efforts, and thanked them with large hugs and lots of smiles. The Te Kupenga team of two teachers and eight students will visit again next term for more musical treats.

Babies will now be enrolled with their GP soon after their birth so they receive essential healthcare such as immunisations, sooner. Health Minister Tony Ryall announced the new enrolment policy last Friday. He said it makes it easier for parents to enrol their baby with their family doctor, because currently fewer than half of newborns are enrolled with a GP at 12 weeks.

MixiNG work aNd Pleasure Almost two thirds of kiwis are mixing business with pleasure. The Randstad Workmonitor survey polled 14,000 employees across 32 countries in the three months to June 30. The study found a 63% trend with kiwis, compared to the global average of 57%. China and Malaysia topped the charts, with 70% of workers seeing love blossom. The lowest rates came from Japan, 33%, and Luxembourg, 36%.

By Annabelle Latz Golf clubs were swapped for fox trotting and waltzing shoes at Marlborough Golf Club last Friday evening. About 120 people attended the Golf Club Ball at Fairhall, an inaugural event which Club member Jane Bay said was such a success it may well happen again. “It was an opportunity to show case our club house to people not involved with golf.” Janet Woolf, from Blenheim, plays the

electric piano in Janet’s Old Time Dance Band, which was hosting the evening. “It just went with a big bang.” The band also included a bass guitar, piano accordion and drums. Janet said everyone just danced the whole night, also having a go at the Gay Gordons Dance. “I wasn’t sure whether people would get up and dance, but they certainly did. Everyone just had a really good time.”
