Chorus coming to Waihi Beach and Waihi

Chorus Communities

Fibre is here so come in to see the team of Chorus experts for a chat over a cup of coffee or tea when they're at the Waihi Beach Community Centre on Tuesday the 30th of August from 10.30am till 12pm.

Later that day they’ll be at the Waihi Community Resource Centre from 3pm till 5pm.

If you’ve got questions about installation, improving your current internet connection or livening up equipment they've already installed, they can help.

A fibre broadband service will provide you with a fast connection that you can rely on.

The great news is it’s still free to get fibre installed for most homes.

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.

Some Choice News!

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!
