Extra Working Bee Waiwhakareke Natural Heritage Park

Lynne from Bader

Dear Friends of Waiwhakareke
and all Hamilton Residents
Your help is needed.

With the growth of grass with spring, there is a need to hold some extra working bees to release the 2020 plantings. An extra working bee will be held on Saturday, 14th November, with an earlier start of 8 am-11 am. We will meet in the Car Park opposite the Zoo Entrance.

Bring sturdy footwear, and gloves. Leg protection is advisable (trousers rather than shorts) and a long sleeved shirt.

Also bring: Food and drink for your morning tea.

Keep an eye on our FaceBook page for any additional notices, and for a report and photos of the day.

Friends of Waiwhakareke

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
