Commemorate your loved ones at Glenfield Library
Matariki is about reflecting on the past, celebrating the present and preparing for the future.
Glenfield Library is honoured to have a space for you to commemorate your loved ones who have passed on since the rising of Matariki in 2022 to the setting 2023.
Please write their name on a star and hang it on the tree.
We will take the stars to the Te Kamaka Marae for a planned lantern walk at sunset on the Saturday 22 July 2023.
Join us behind the Northcote Library@6PM.
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
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!
Primary School Tutoring – North Shore
Hi neighbours,
I’m a local primary school teacher with experience teaching Years 3–6, and I’m offering a small number of after-school tutoring sessions for primary-aged students.
I can support children with:
• Reading and comprehension
• Writing skills
• Maths confidence
• Catch-up support or extension for capable learners
My focus is on helping students build confidence as well as skills, using practical strategies that work in the classroom.
📍 I’m based on the North Shore, close to Willow Park Primary School.
⏰ Current availability: Thursdays at 4pm, with a few fortnightly session options also available.
$60 for 45 minute sessions.
If you’d like to chat about whether tutoring could help your child, feel free to send me a message.
Kelly
