Rotary Annual Charity Book Fair, Northcote College
Just a big thankyou for all those many people in the community who supported our Rotary Annual Charity Book Fair by donating books, or attended the fair. It was a great succes, the best ever, but it could not have happened without many volunteers who offered to help. Thanks go to Multiple Sclerosis Auckand, for their assistance, and it was pleasing to see the group rewarded with a large cheque from the proceeds. Thanks also go to the suppliers of services, and once again to the local Z service stationson the North Shore that came the party by providing collection points for dropping off of books.

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
