Community Car Boot Fair - 3rd December

Sarah from One Tree Hill

Oranga School's PTA is running a Community Car Boot Fair this coming weekend. We still have sellers spots available for cars or on tables in the hall. You pay a one off charge for your space but then any money from what you sell is yours to keep. Make some extra cash ahead of Christmas by clearing out your unwanted items. Book your spot today: bit.ly... you dont need to belong to the school to take a spot.

The event is free to buyers so come along and shop for some bargain Christmas presents such as books, toys, clothing and various other items. Hot sausages and coffee available to purchase.

Sunday 3rd December from 9-12am at Oranga School, 21 Rangipawa Road, One Tree Hill.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
