Bad joke #1: A gingerbread man walks into the clinic complaining of knee pain. The physio asks, "Have you tried icing it?" 🤣
Tēnā Tātou Katoa,
As we approach Christmas MINZI would like to take the opportunity to thank you for your support in 2025, albeit via course attendance, engagement with credentialed update and seminar days, assistance on the committee or in taking the time to participate in our online quiz. A special thanks to Emma, our branch manager, for her ongoing mahi, congratulations to Davide Castorina for his promotion to Probationary Faculty and to Karen Giles promoted to Faculty for Part A and Part B Courses 🎉
We welcome in 2026 with hopes of seeing you at a course, increasing our online presence and engagement but more importantly we wish you all health and prosperity for the New Year. May you have a joyous break with whānau and friends over the holidays.
Ngā mihi nui
Karen, Carey, Davide, Marg, Emma, Greg and Bart
