Sixteen people from refugee backgrounds and migrant communities recently completed English Language Partners’ (ELP) English for Job Seekers course in Palmerston North.
The course is one of many work-related courses ELP offers to help newer Kiwis find work and then support them once they are in employment.
One part-time administrator and about 50 volunteers have taken on the challenge of making Papakura sustainable, or as their website says, ‘Creating a sustainable world for our mokopuna.’
This Auckland community is home to about 60,000 people.
