Cosy retro "Elections Lounge" in the Central Library

The Team from Whangarei District Council

We've set up a cosy retro "Elections Lounge" where you can watch candidate videos, learn about the Māori Wards Poll and the STV voting system. 🕺 It's a vibe!

Two of the visitors this morning were Myra and baby Araiteuru. Myra said "It's important to know who's running for Council, and what they can bring for our District".

It's free at the Central Library all the way up until voting closes on Saturday 11 October 2025. The library's normal opening-hours apply.

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
