Auckland Transport has information on stop closures and alternative routes for buses during parades including Westgate, Mairangi Bay, Onehunga, Ōrewa, and Kumeū. In the city centre, Large parts of Queen Street, Albert Street, Victoria Street, Commerce Street, Customs Street, Beach Road, Mayoral Drive and other areas of the city centre will be closed.
Several bus routes and Fullers ferries will have extra services running on the day. See which ones apply to you, or use the Journey Planner to find times for regular scheduled services.
Most bus services will be diverted from the start of service until the roads reopen about 5pm.
Don’t forget – kids ride for 99c on weekends with AT Hop.
An important message about trains: Please be advised that balloons cannot be carried on trains or in the stations due to the risk of them flying away and hitting the overhead power lines.
Farmers Santa Parade

If you are planning drive in to the city centre, please be aware that road closures and parking restrictions will be in place.
Public parking is free at the Downtown, Victoria Street and Civic car parks for vehicles parked by 11am and exited by 6pm.Visit At.govt.nz to see how these could affect you.

It is an opportunity to learn about other cultures and network with like-minded women. While mentors take the opportunity to hold the door open for younger women to reach their full potential, they come away with unique experiences that enrich their own lives.
Here is a video about the programme - vimeo.com...
2017 mentee intakes will come from Kelston Girls High School, Sir Edmund Hillary Collegiate and Tamaki College.
Please note; this is a two to three year commitment. The actual time you will need to commit on a monthly basis is flexible and will depend on your relationship with your mentee. Almost all of our mentors tell us that what starts off feeling like a big commitment, becomes a fun experience they look forward to and it becomes a pleasure, not a burden.
