Dear families!
This year, we're celebrating the TLAW by offering a big promotion and having a funny coloring contest!
* ONE month free membership will be added to an existing member, when a new member is referred, maximum TWO months! And the new member will receive a huge Toy Library carrying bag as a welcome gift. The promotion ends on 31th March.
* We’d love to get our toy library lighten up by all the colorful artworks from your little artists! We’ll have them pasted on our cupboards, so every time you visit with your little ones, they’ll be delighted to see their works too! Please find the coloring sheet and share with as many families as you can!
The contest ends on 30th March, the result will be revealed on 31th March on Facebook.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
60% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
88% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
12% No. This would be impossible in practice.
