Tree Planting Day at Woodall Park Pump Track

Libby Boyd from Devonport Rotary Club

Sunday 29th Sep
9 am to 12 midday.

Please join this community event to plant trees and make a positive impact on the surrounds of the pump track.

Brett Garea from BGE Environments has kindly donated plants for us to plant on the day. Devonport Rotary will also supply plants purchased from our very own local RTH Native Plant Nursery. These plants are required to fill a few gaps and help stabilise the sides of the jumps.

Make it a family day! We encourage you to bring along your children so that they can plant their very own trees in this popular community space.

Please bring along your spades for digging and gardening gear such as rakes, weed eaters and clippers to trim the weeds and groom the track.

There will be some vouchers for a free coffee at Narrow Neck Beach Cafe after the planting.

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?
