Christmas Lunch at Marfell School

12/12/2018

This is the third year that our team in New Zealand have prepared and served lunch to Marfell Community School at Christmas time. And for a couple of our New Plymouth staff, the alarm clock went off extra early so they could get the hams in the oven!

All 130 students and staff were treated to baked ham buns with coleslaw, fruit and cupcakes. The sun was out so the kids could enjoy their lunches outside in the summer weather. It's a great chance to support the community and to have a little fun! One of the classes even thanked the team with a waiata (song).

Check out the school's post on Facebook for more photos and a video.

Another Successful Year

26/11/2018

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Taranaki (BBBS) recently held their Annual General Meeting and were able to reflect on another successful year.

Some of the highlights include 14 new matches being made in the last six months which shows the mentoring programme is continuing to grow. They have over 100 volunteer mentors matched with over 100 children from our community. And they've seen 26 of these matches going strong for more than five years now!

We are proud to support an organisation that is making such a real and positive difference in the lives of so many people. "Although BBBS is a Trust and completely dependent on charitable donations and funding, we remain in a healthy position due to the partnership we have with Tamarind," says Paul Shearer, Chairperson BBBS Trust.

Board of Inquiry Hearing Update

12/11/2018

An excerpt from coverage of the Board of Inquiry hearing we had last week related to our EPA applications for marine consent and marine discharge consent:

"A successful side-track drilling programme proposed at the offshore Tui oil and gas field may boost the Taranaki economy by up to $110 million, a board of inquiry heard today.

Field operator Tamarind Resources says the drilling work planned next year could extend the life of the field out to 2025 – about six years more than might otherwise be the case – and extract about 7.5 million barrels of oil that would otherwise be left almost four kilometres below the sea floor.

The drilling programme itself, which will involve bringing in a semi-submersible rig, would provide the equivalent of 170 jobs for a year and inject $15.7 million into the local economy, according to an estimate by Insight Economics managing director Fraser Colegrave.

Should the drilling be successful, that regional benefit increases to $110 million over six years, including 180 jobs and an extra $80 million of household incomes.

Successful drilling would also generate about $90 million of taxes and royalties for the Crown."
