Christmas Kai & Carols
We would like to extend an invitation to the community for our ever-popular annual ‘Kai and Carols’ on Sunday December 17th beginning with the meal at 5:30pm.
It’s a chance for the local community to come together, have a meal and join in the carol singing, experiencing the real meaning of Christmas. This is a great opportunity for you all to see the Centre in full swing, and to join us in celebrating our Saviour’s birth. The old favourite carols will be sung and the food will be great so please come and join us. We look forward to meeting with you then. Doors open 5pm. Everyone is welcome, just bring yourself. It is free. Cnr of Dominion Rd & Breckons Ave, Nawton.

Mayor’s use of poo emoji costs ratepayers over $4k
South Waikato mayor Gary Petley will make a public apology, and has sworn off social media after admitting he got it wrong when an online dispute turned sour.

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
