Our second to last information event is on this Friday at the Botany Town Centre next to Starbucks. We’re there from 9am to 9pm. If you catch a bus to and around South Auckland and need help working out your new bus timetable, then come along and AT staff will be there to assist you.

The following East Auckland bus services will not change: 500,501, 545, 550, 551, 552, 565, 575 and 589

All other buses that travel to and within south Auckland will change on Sunday 30 October.

The 580 will travel the same route but will no longer stop at Leyton Way, outside the Westfield Shopping Mall in Manukau. The 580 will now stop and pick up customers at the bus stop located near the Manukau train station.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
