Share your favourite place in Tāmaki Makaurau

The Team from Auckland Museum

Whether you’re an experienced writer or just starting out, we’re calling for poem submissions inspired by a place in Tāmaki Makaurau.

This online poetry project is a celebration of our city, inspired by a map of Auckland drawn up by Leslie Kelly in 1940. We’re collecting poems in the lead up to the opening of Tāmaki Herenga Waka: Stories of Auckland gallery in 2021.

Submit and pin your poem on our online map, and explore poems from others here.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
