St Thomas' parish fair 18 May, 10 am to 4 pm
Hi everyone
COMMUNITY HELP REQUIRED
St Thomas Church is planning a fundraising gala, fair with the purpose of raising funds to the heritage stained glass windows which are in dire need of repair.
St Thomas’s has been part of our community since 1843, it was the first stone Anglican Church to be built accompanied by a graveyard which Pākehā, Pasifika, Māori were laid to rest.
The stained glass windows are an example of magnificent craftsmanship and part of our heritage, they deserve to be restored so future generations can enjoy.

What's one highway or road that needs attention?
We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.
If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.
Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!
