Only three more sleeps!
The Helensville Christmas Market is to be held Saturday 14th December from 9 to 2 pm at the Helensville Hall. The Hall is on the main street behind the Library and beside the RSA.
There’s plenty of parking at the back of the hall. The Market is primarily a community event where local people come to sell second hand goods, arts and crafts and homemade produce, antiques and collectibles, bric a brac / homemade gift ware. For the Christmas Market, we’ve got heaps of new sellers that are offering some fantastic Christmas gift ideas.
Community groups will be invited to come along and participate to fund raise and also have a presence if they wish to advertise and promote their clubs or charities/organizations.

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?
-
59.6% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.7% ... It is complicated
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.
