New shade sails at Monarch Park playground
Shade sails have now been installed over the playground at Monarch Park, Hillcrest 🙂
The orange and black colours are in keeping with the "monarch butterfly" theme at the park.
As part of this project, the junior playspace has been relocated so it is also covered by the shade.
While you're there, check out the little library, nature play in the bush area, and keep an eye out for fairies!
Entrances to the park can be found on Moore Street, McDowell Cres, Monarch Ave and Mannering Place.
Funded by the Kaipatiki Local Board.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
