Code brown: Swimming spots to avoid during school holidays
Hi neighbours, the school holidays are upon us and it is a timely reminder to be aware of where you are swimming. Auckland Council's Safeswim website is a good place to look at on the day to find out if the swimming spot is contaminated from recent rainfall.
