A Kingsland Christmas
Hi Neighbours!
I'm helping The Fringe District put together a free family event in The Kingsland Rail Plaza on Saturday 26 November 4-7pm.
We are installing a 10 metre Christmas Tree to bring some outdoor festive vibes to our community. We have Santa and his elves on site from 4-7pm taking free family photos, free face painting, cheeky elves, tuk tuk rides. Be entertained by Santas helpers; The Madeleines Trio, and singalong with Suzy Cato!
We also have a $2000 raffle (sourced from local businesses). Tickets $5, drawn at 645pm in the Rail Plaza - must be on site at prize draw to take it all home with you :)
We thought it would be great to have Santa outdoors this year - so come on down to the Rail Plaza!
Hope to see you all there :) Claire

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
