Lost Pet

Shernett from Ellerslie

Has anyone seen my handsome boy? He has been missing since 6/5/21 around 8pm. I search and call for him but nothing. He does sometimes go walk about, but loves his food so normally back by morning.

He is very friendly and will go up to just about anyone.

Has anyone seen my handsome boy? He has been missing since 6/5/21 around 8pm. I search and call for him but nothing. He does sometimes go walk about, but loves his food so normally back by morning.

He is very friendly and will go up to just about anyone.

He is recovering from a surgery from about a month ago so his hair is still growing back on his left side.

Please see photos attached. He is microchip so do hope if someone found him they would return him to a vet.

My number is 0220 475 512 if you have seen him. We live in Ellerslie around Great South Road

Thanks

Kia ora Auckland,

Should Queen Street be car-free?

Major roading upgrades are set to get underway on Queen Street which the council says will improve pedestrian spaces.

The work is set to begin on Monday between Shortland and Customs streets, limiting traffic to a single lane each way and with bus priority in the evening peak.

Some have expressed their concerns for the project including a group of businesses and landlords calling itself Save Queen. The group applied for an interim injunction to halt the council's planned Queen St upgrade and a High Court Judge will decide whether to approve the injunction later today.

Should the upgrade go even further and ban passenger vehicles altogether? Let us know in the comments and don't forget to type NFP if you don't want your comment used in your local community paper.

Local artists and tertiary art students have collaborated to create a new piece of large-scale art that celebrates the cultural diversity of Tāmaki Makaurau.

Students Nikita Sharma, Celia Lee and Jenny Zhong were chosen to design and paint one panel of the three-section mural after an invitation by Study Auckland.

The goal was to give international students the chance to work with renound artists Ross Liew, Hana Maihi of Ngati Whatua Orakei and Te Whetu Collective member Poi Ngawati and experience crafting public art.

The other two panels have been painted by Maihi and Ngawati to create awareness of the rich Māori heritage on which the city was founded.

The three panels depict the importance of welcoming different cultures in Tamaki Makaurau and Te Tōangaroa, an area spanning from the end of Britomart to The Strand.

The biodiversity that once characterised the cultural landscape of Te Tōangaroa and Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei’s history as mana whenua of Tāmaki have also been highlighted in the mural design.

Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Whai Rawa cultural design executive Mei Hill said other Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei initiatives were planned to reinvigorate the cultural footprint of Te Tōangaroa.

“Sharing the journey of Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei through art is just the beginning of how we intend to bring to life the masterplan for Te Tōangaroa. Our vision is a space where the people of Tāmaki can come together and enjoy and respect the culture and environment this city and its people have to offer,” Hill said.
