Something SPECIAL is happening right here on Sunday
THIS SUNDAY 21st MARCH
When was the last time you got "up close" to a Kiwi?
Buy an adult ticket to Kiwi North and bring up to 3 kids along for free. That includes entry to the Kiwi House and Whangarei Museum .
The kiwi are most active at 11am, 1pm and 3pm when they're getting fed, so that's an ideal time to watch these little guys in their home.
While you're here, tractors and train rides are on at Heritage Park. Whangarei Model Engineering Club mini train rides are $2.00, Steam and Model Railway Club big train rides are $2.50 and Northland Vintage Machinery Club tractor rides are $2.50. It's a pretty special way to see the park for kids and big kids alike.
See you there!
An update on repairing major slips in Northland
Responding to flooding and severe weather has been expensive. Northland’s local road network has suffered approximately $89m worth of damage from at least 10 different significant weather events since July 2022.
We've worked with other Northland Councils to produce an interactive map showing repair of slips in our Region.
It shows that we have successfully restored the majority of roads in Whangārei District and are focusing on 28 remaining sites, with an estimated cost of around $10 million total. These repairs are expected to take 2 - 3 years to complete.
