Chorus coming to Waihi Beach and Waihi
Fibre is here so come in to see the team of Chorus experts for a chat over a cup of coffee or tea when they're at the Waihi Beach Community Centre on Tuesday the 30th of August from 10.30am till 12pm.
Later that day they’ll be at the Waihi Community Resource Centre from 3pm till 5pm.
If you’ve got questions about installation, improving your current internet connection or livening up equipment they've already installed, they can help.
A fibre broadband service will provide you with a fast connection that you can rely on.
The great news is it’s still free to get fibre installed for most homes.

Some Choice News!
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!
