Garage sale

Kayla from Frankton

Thank you to everyone who supported Allaie with donations and also attending her garage sale.
We appreciate all the help.
Allaie is the one on the left ❤️
Because of the communities willingness and support
Allaie is able to pay her camp fees and get her passport
without a community like this and a church family and godly lifestyle we surrounded ourselves with 4.5 years ago this would not be an opportunity for Allaie.
4.5 years ago I was a drug addict, alcoholic, addicted to cigarettes, domestic violence victim, babysitting kind of parent this was allaies lifestyle she was brought up in..Until 4.5 years ago..
Now I no longer do any of these things, delivered from my addictions and habits, no longer a victim of domestic violence. I am into my children and their futures. Allaie also has mild spinal Bifida so the fact that people supported her makes this a very big thing for her. A reference point she will remember for the rest of her life.

Thank you again neighbours

Do you have a most-hated intersection in Waikato?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

New data has pinpointed Hamilton’s most dangerous intersections, including a high risk Cobham Drive turn off that a resident and driving experts believe should be shut for good.

While that turn into Grey St has resulted in the highest number of injuries, most crashes occurred at the bustling intersection of Te Rapa Straight and Wairere Drive.

Do you have a most-hated intersection in Waikato? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
