Meet Raukura Edwards who shares “I loved the experience of studying, I felt at home at Awanuiārangi.

The lecturers are amazing. Being able to learn online and through block learning was so much more efficient for me as a working Māmā. I was able to work, look after my tamariki and gain a degree. We supported each other to get over the line. I’m studying for a Master’s now and I’m learning so much more. I love it!”

Hi neighbours. I'm looking to chat to some people about their religion for a project to be published in the Sunday Star-Times. The story will examine the role of religion and faith in New Zealand, and how it has changed over the last few decades.

Do you know of any unique places of worship in Auckland? Perhaps you have a special area in your home where your family meets to pray, or the way you cook and meet people is shaped by your faith? How does your faith help you through challenging times?

I'd love to hear from people of all religions - please email me a little bit about yourself at caroline.williams@stuff.co.nz if you're interested in sharing.

Hi neighbours,

Have you seen the arial photographs of the progress of construction on the major motorway project north of Auckland?

The Ōkahu Viaduct is a steel girder bridge that crosses Pūhoi Rd and Te Aqua Pūhoi.

Work is taking place near the Johnstones Hill tunnels, as part of the Ara Tūhono project that will extend the four-lane Northern Motorway (SH1) 18.5km from Pūhoi to just north of Warkworth, in a move aimed at improving road safety.

The motorway was scheduled to open at the end of 2021, but delays due to the coronavirus alert level 4 lockdown in April meant nearly five weeks of working time was lost.

Now, the new road is expected to be open in time for Queen’s Birthday weekend 2022. To read more, click here

Hi neighbours, Auckland-based rapper Mustafa Sheikh, who performs as Lil Mussie, worked with the producer of three of Kanye West’s Grammy-winning albums on his new single.
The collaboration led to him having a "surreal" FaceTime call with West - one of his biggest inspirations. Sheikh's music is inspired by his work supporting Kiwi kids experiencing poverty through the charity he founded called Bread. Find out more about him and his work in the below story and video.
