The team at Franklin County News hope you all had a great Easter.
I certainly did, exploring rural Franklin with the family, on a road trip through Waingaro to Raglan on sunny Easter Monday, which followed an outing to the picturesque Awhitu lighthouse at the tip of the Manukau Heads the day before.
Both are beautiful spots, and we enjoyed stunning drives getting to our coastal destinations on our Easter weekend adventures.
We have another short week this week - and next, with Anzac Day on Tuesday, April 25.
The district has a proud history in acknowledging our war time heroes and each year the local RSAs do a fabulous job paying tribute to those who sacrificed so much. We’ll have full coverage of Anzac events online next week and in print on Thursday.
*To accommodate the public holiday on Tuesday, we are publishing on Monday next week.
Cheers, Julie :)
