Beauty In A New Build

Murray Halberg Retirement Village

At Murray Halberg Village, a quality new retirement living option has emerged, with the Snell apartment block, named for Halberg's fellow Olympian Sir Peter Snell, nearing completion.

The attention to detail in the construction and finishing of these apartments is excellent, say Project Manager Johannes Cronje and Regional Construction Manager Matt Hutchinson.

Everything is high spec, built to last and beautifully finished. This quality extends through to things such as a silent fan system which quietly moves the air 24/7, preventing condensation. It can’t be heard, and it creates a healthier, warmer home for residents.

Natural light filters through full height windows and doors leading to a spacious balcony or patio, some with fabulous views over lush native bush.

“There’s a lot of confidence in the construction team,” adds Johannes.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
