I have seen the frame turned upside down and netting placed around and used for gardens. If anyone wants to give it a try it is up for free. You just need to take the frame, we are getting rid of the rest. Must be able to pick up by Friday. Or it is off to the dump. 😁 approx size I think 16 foot round tramp. Also have lots of plastic seedling pungent pots. Free to a good home. First in first serve. 😁

In that timeframe we would be looking to complete the design, develop, and build it." says Hamilton City Council general manager of development, Chris Allen. The only functioning railway station currently in Hamilton is Frankton.

"We've got a proposal to stop at Rotokauri, Taupiri, Huntly and up through Papakura and into the Auckland network."

The development of the public transport site is estimated to cost about $3.5 million. The Hamilton-Auckland rail service proposal was first considered and rejected in 2011.

Now, the decision is left with NZTA which chooses where to dedicate the cash. The business case will be put to the NZTA on October 5 for funding approval.

McDonald's staff at two Waikato restaurants were forced to hide in safe rooms and bathrooms after robbers struck on Friday. McDonald's on Queen St in Cambridge was the first to be robbed by several offenders at 3.55am.

A short time later what's believed to be the same assailants again smashed their way into the McDonald's restaurant on Horsham Downs Rd in Rototuna. It appears several vehicle loads of offenders were involved in the incident.

Anyone with information which may be of use to police in these investigations to contact Hamilton police on 07 858 6200. Police are at the robbery scenes this morning and scene examinations are underway. Alternatively, people can call Crimestoppers anonymously via 0800 555 111. Read more here.

Kia Ora all!

Have you heard of the Pātaka Kai that have been popping up in Hamilton over the last month? I am kaitiaki of the one in Tramway Rd and would like to invite as many people as possible to participate in the giving and sharing :)

Perhaps your business or work would like to participate, perhaps you have a contact for excess kai or perhaps you have excess fruit on your tree? - perhaps you would like to start a pātaka pantry in your neighbourhood?

I am happy for you to contact me if you have any amazing ideas on how we can keep this kaupapa/concept thriving! Communities doing community well!


What an awesome kaupapa we are on ‘Share what you can & take what you need’

3 weeks in to the kaupapa in Hamilton and we have some well established Pātaka, amazingly generous communities - and some well fed whanau!

‘Thank you & You’re welcome’ - to and from
all!!

If you are wanting of thinking about a koha - today and every day is a good day! Pick a pātaka kai (or more) and simply put kai in.
- a focus for the day could be fresh fruit and vege excess from the tree or garden you may have, or cans to withstand this weeks weather 😳😳

‘It is a take what you need, give what you can (when/if you can) kaupapa 🙂 no expectations, no judgment. Swapping is fine. If you don’t need to take, ka pai, if you do, ka pai! If you want to give, share, swap - also ka pai 💜The kaupapa is community doing community well, looking after our own by sharing excess kai.
Just because we don’t need today doesn’t mean we may not need next week 🙂
