Join the fun for another working bee at Woodall Park Pump Track this Saturday
We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to come on down to the Pump Track this Saturday morning the 12th March from 8 am for a few hours during the day through till about 3 pm. Gill and Gundry are giving it another big push with 3 machines working to spread metal and clay on the remaining sections of the track.
We need your help to spread out the metal, clear up and tidy tree branches and the site in general. Bring rakes, wheelbarrows and chainsaws, sunscreen and hats. a reminder to come along to the working bee this Saturday any time you can spare between 8 am and 3 pm. There will be a sausage sizzle running from 10 am to keep you going. You will see great progress on site
Be part of this great project that is shaping up to be a fun place for the young in our area.
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?
-
88.5% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
11.5% No. This would be impossible in practice.
