New Little Library
There’s a new little library in Urlich Ave, Melville. Look for the colourful fridge on our front lawn, not far from the shops. Plenty of ‘cool’ books for all - picture books, older kids, adult fiction and non-fiction.
You’re welcome to take a book or two, no need to swap if you don’t have one to give, we’d just like to share the love of reading.
We’ll keep the library well stocked and would love donations to help with that. We’ll keep the selection fresh, so have a look whenever you pass.
At the moment there is no through traffic on Urlich Ave due to road works, so if you’re driving you’ll need to come off Ohaupo Rd. On the plus side, the road is much quieter than usual!

It’s been a feature in a recent Hamilton District Court trial , but a Tamahere mansion already has an complicated history.
The property in Woodcock Rd - notable for having a hydroslide in the back yard - the scene of now-disproved alleged sexual offending by Hamilton dentist Rahul Gautam - made headlines more than 15 years ago, when it was a focus in the case of accountant Gary Soffe.

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
