Garage or Hall Needed for February Garage Sales
MMMT has been gifted a container load of stuff to sell! We would like to hold two garage sales in February to coincide with the student flat influx. Do have a space we can use? It would need to be in Hamilton, be close to or visible from the road (ie not down an alleyway and have plenty of nearby parking. On the Friday we would lay sheets over nay of your articles left in the garage, bring and lay out boxes and tables. On the Saturday and Sunday we would man the garage from 5.30-3.00pm. On the Sunday afternoon and Monday morning we would re-pack and remove all boxes and tables. If you can let us use such a space, you would be helping us pay the Registered Music Therapists who work with patients in the residential dementia care facilities we serve. For details of our work, see out website, Facebook page or the attached copy of our latest newsletter. If you can help, phone Kath: 021 08187218.
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.
A code of conduct complaint was made by Putāruru ward councillor Zed Latinovic in January after Petley reacted to comments made about council expenditure on Facebook by using the ‘poo emoji’.

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!
