Sandringham Street Festival 2025
Sandringham’s Street Festival is back in early November this year and it's going to be a huge!
We invite anyone from around Auckland to come and experience a free-wheeling taste of famous Sandringham! Try new foods, check out the amazing flavours coming from our shops, and enjoy different cultures and music in the Reserve and side streets.
There’ll be food trucks, new food from around the world (& some old favourites!), retail and trading stalls, amusement rides, and competitions. In the morning we'll have schools, community groups and bands performing on stage in the Sandringham Reserve, then the Pipi Pickers, Hoop and the Elementary Penguins are there to keep you entertained in the afternoon!
Buskers, competitions, community groups, plenty of fun and games for kids, and heaps of delicious food and drinks for everyone!
Thanks heaps to the Albert-Eden Local Board for the funding to help make this event happen each year!

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
36.6% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
62.6% No, I enjoy it
-
0.8% Other - I'll share below
Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?
Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.
For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.
Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.
