Paint & Sip Evening at Paraoa

Robin from Gulf Harbour

WOW β€” what a night! 🎨🍻

Another amazing, creative evening at Paraoa Brewing Co β€” a full house (plus a few extras!) and so much talent on display.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to everyone who came along and brought the good vibes and colour!

πŸ–ŒοΈ Big love to Resene β€” hands down the best paint for coverage, drying time, and stunning colours. Check out the metallics!
♻️ Massive thanks to Plyman β€” your support means we can offer free spots to members of our community who are quietly and consistently doing great mahi behind the scenes.
🍺 Huge appreciation to Paraoa Brewing Co for welcoming our creative crew β€” and letting us bring the crazy gang! πŸ˜„

🌟 If you know someone (or a team!) who deserves a free place at our next Paint & Sip, please tag them below and let us know β€” we’d love to celebrate their awesome work with a creative night out.

We’ll be hosting another event soon β€” so if you’re ready to unleash your inner Dick Frizzell, Greg Straight, Hayley King (Flox) or Picasso, send us a message to go on the waitlist!

Ngā mihi nui,
Robin & The NEWCREATION crew

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? πŸ’°πŸŒ²

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.

Auckland, why are we so excited about a new store? πŸš—πŸ›’

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

I think we’ve all seen the traffic notices and headlines about the new IKEA by now!

So here’s the question: why do we get so excited when a new store opens? Convenience? Curiosity? A reason for a weekend outing? We’d love to hear your thoughts!

Keen for an update? The Post has you covered
