Notification
Good evening neighbourly members.
Lately I have read about items that have been taken/stolen from residential properties. It appears that some have been reported to police BUT some have not.
It is great to see warnings being placed on neighbourly to inform people of what has been happening and where, BUT the police should also be informed!!
It doesn't matter how miniscule it may seem to you. It could be the piece missing from a bigger picture the police are trying to finish.
For a crime happening in front of you please dial 111. Give as much detail as possible. Clothing, shoes, male or female, race, distinguishing features, vehicle make, model, registration and colour, direction of travel.
For a historic event please call your local police station.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
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.

Some Choice News!
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!
