Time: 11:00am - 1:00pm (or until sold out)
Location: Beautification Trust - 38 Holmes Road, Manurewa
Cost: $15 per bag

Pilot Programme: Initially this will run for 6 weeks; if the pilot programme is popular with the community, we will aim to make it a long-term offering.

Share your New Zealand music memories...

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's NZ Music Month and New Zealand really has some beautiful songs from artists that we call our own.

Whether it's April Sun in Cuba, Don't Forget your Roots, or How Bizarre or Bic Runga's 'Sway' - songs have a way of unlocking memories and evoking old feelings.

In honour of NZ Music Month, share a New Zealand song or artist that is special to you and explain why.

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.

Thanks for the Speed Tables, Auckland Transport!

Jake from Weymouth

Thank you Auckland Transport, for the new speed tables on Palmers Road and Weymouth Road.

Getting them all done together made it less of a pain and now these streets feel more like they are designed for 30kph.

Driving at 30 is very different to the way most of us were trained to drive, so it helps when the street design tells us it is OK to go slow.

Don't be a try-hard, let that engine idle in gear and cruise your neighbourhood in style. Wind a window down and enjoy.

Everyone benefits from safer roads and crossings, but especially the tamariki on their way to and from the bus stops, kindies, schools, playgrounds, reserves, dairies, community centres, library, pool and mall.

Great job AT!
