The Quarry gardens are looking LOVELY....

Alison Neighbourly Lead from Kamo

The stream bed repairs at the gardens are coming along great!
Many large rocks have been added to strengthen the banks so in the event of another flood there should not be any slips or collapses.
Thank you to everyone who has visited us recently for your patience and understanding while we work through these repairs.

PS: And the food offered in Quail Cafe - is DELICIOUS!!

My recommendation - is to eat and then take a walk up to the lake.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
