FREE Child Weekend Fares - from Saturday 7 September
Good news is, AT is making Child Weekend Fares free and extending the offer to some ferries as well! Children 5-15, inclusive, travelling with a registered AT HOP card can travel free on trains, buses and ferries* on weekends and on public holidays. Children under five already travel free of charge. This is fantastic news for families, as it means from 7 September, they’ll be able to take the kids on adventures all over Auckland on the train, bus or ferry*, absolutely free. Now’s the time to make sure your children have AT HOP cards and register them online. By registering, Child Concessions will be automatically loaded when you enter their date of birth, and they’ll be able to take advantage of Free Child Weekend Fares. You’ll need to tag on and off, but there will be no charge. *Skybus and some ferry services excluded.

Age Well Kiwi
We are a new support group for seniors. We meet once a month to share our experience and discuss our challenges & concerns.
With the growth of our ageing population, and more seniors living alone, this group would explore and advocate/address the social, emotional and physical needs of our seniors, and promote positive and healthy ageing.
We meet on the first Saturday afternoon of the month in Mt. Roskill. Our next meeting will be 7 Mar 2026.
If you are interested in joining us and contribute your ideas, knowledge, experience, talents and resources, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us at agewellkiwi@gmail.com.
