🌸 Good morning, Waitākere! 🌸
🌸 Good morning, Waitākere! 🌸
As I dropped my son off at Glen Eden Intermediate School this morning, I was reminded again of what a privilege it is to be part of this community. It’s these everyday moments – our kids learning, our neighbours chatting, our local streets humming with life – that make our home so special.
That’s why I’m humbly asking for your support for the Waitākere Ranges Local Board. I do have is a deep commitment to listening to you and working hard for families like ours.
If you believe in:
✅ Safer streets around our schools and parks
✅ Well-maintained local spaces where kids can play and families can connect
✅ A voice on the board that’s rooted in real life, not just politics
Then I would be truly honoured to earn your vote.
Thank you for being the heart of our community.
With gratitude,
Rizwan
A local parent and your candidate for Waitākere Ranges Local Board
Please vote QURESHI, Rizwan Ahmed
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?
-
41.5% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
56.9% No, I enjoy it
-
1.7% Other - I'll share below
Don't overthink this riddle...
I have a silver sole
but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?

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.
