Volunteers wanted
South Auckland House of Science relies on volunteers to service the primary school students of East/South Auckland. I am looking for volunteers to
join a small team to help process the kits that have been returned from our member schools. This involves checking the equipment in the kit (cleaning if necessary) and restocking the consumables. Must have a reasonable command of written English.
We operate on a fortnightly loan system and require help every second Friday from 10 am during the school terms.
I do require volunteers on Friday 5th July, or else it will be from Friday 2nd August.
Please email Andrea at southauckland@houseofscience.nz or phone/text 0211297570 for more details. Thanks!
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
16.7% ... It is complicated
A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜

If you multiply this number by any other number, the answer will always be the same. What number is this?
Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
