MECOSS Services Update
The Government has decided to extend Alert Level 2.5 in Auckland and to also keep the rest of the country at Alert Level 2.
The continuation of suspended MECOSS services include:
1). Dance Yourself Happy
2). Manukau East Shopping Shuttle
3). Botany & Flat Bush & Ormiston Community Networking Meeting
Cabinet will review the settings again on Monday 21 September with a view to increasing gathering limits in Auckland ( if it is safe), which would come into effect at midnight on 23 September.
We will advise you as soon possible whether the new settings will allow the MECOSS AGM to go ahead on Thursday 1 October.

Manurewa Library Tamariki Market - Saturday 7 December
Manurewa Library is holding a Tamariki Market on Saturday 7 December, 9.30 - 12, 30 pm. This is a great opportunity for young people to fundraise for Christmas, holidays or special projects. Please share this panui with young creatives so they can "book a space" to sell their crafts, sewing, knitting and baking etc. Phone Sonia at the Library on 262-5273 to book a space at the Tamariki Market.
