We must now all stay home. Because that’s how we’ll stop the virus.
Level 4 measures will likely be in place for a number of weeks.
Don’t worry. During that time you will still be able to access all the essentials you need, including medicine, food, and other home supplies.
ALL THE TIME, NO EXCEPTIONS
It’s incredibly important that we all follow the Level 4 plan, all the time. No exceptions. Because doing so will save lives.
A CHALLENGE FOR EVERYONE
We realise these are big changes. But these are challenging times.
If we don't all stay home, the whole country will need Level 4 restrictions for longer.
SUPPORT OUR EMERGENCY SERVICE PEOPLE
We owe it to the essential services. Our nurses, doctors and everyone else on the frontline. They’re working tirelessly to save lives. We should all do everything in our power to help them do this.
Thank you to each and every person, for doing their bit.
While you’re staying at home:
STAY CONNECTED
• Don’t let physical distance stop you staying connected. Keep in touch with people using video calls, phone calls, chat and texting.
• If you know people who are living alone, vulnerable, or separated from their loved ones, regularly check-in with them.
STAY WELL
• Continue to practice good hygiene – wash your hands with soap. Then dry.
• Cough or sneeze into your elbow.
• Regularly clean surfaces in your home with disinfectant.
• Keep up regular physical exercise, and get some fresh air when possible. It’s good so long as this is solitary, or only with those you live with.
REACH OUT
If you need advice, support or help, try reaching out to friends, family, whānau or workmates.
WE'RE UPDATING INFORMATION CONSTANTLY
For all the latest advice, including answers to your health and financial questions, go to Covid19.govt.nz.
And remember: what you do now, will help protect all of us.
As of tonight at 11:59pm New Zealand will move to a Level 4 alert in response to the #COVID19 pandemic. It will put the entire country on lockdown for four weeks. Here’s what that will mean for us moving forward:

We are passionate about bringing like-minded individuals together to explore this beautiful landscape we call our backyard and are ready to go full steam ahead with our next tour the moment it is safe to do so.

"We are now entering a time where families are separated into individual household bubbles and unable to communicate and interact the way they normally do. Our neighbours are the ones who can step up and help."
Please don't hesitate to get in touch.
We're all in this together ❤️
It’s pretty simple – be kind, stay home, save lives. Tackling COVID-19 is going to require all of us following official advice.
Vege markets around the country will be going ahead this weekend despite a ban on gatherings.

The restriction is aimed at discouraging camping and congregation in the light of the raised COVID-19 alert levels and directives from the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Health. While the restriction will be in place until further notice, cyclists and pedestrians will continue to have access to pathways by the river.

Rubbish collection is an essential service in an emergency situation.
We have been advised that recycling is non-essential which means the recycling facility that receives our city’s recycling material has closed. We have been able to make arrangements for a glass recycler to take glass only.

What this means for you and us
Be responsible. Please don’t dump your rubbish and recycling. Kerbside rubbish collection is continuing. You can buy bags at the supermarket or contact a commercial company for a private wheelie bin service.
If you continue to use the recycling crates please only use these for glass. Please do not put anything else in your recycling crate – this only makes it harder for the collection people. Please note we cannot advise when our full recycling service will restart.
Our community recycling stations will close effective 5pm today as they cannot take all recyclables. To discourage illegal dumping the bins will start to be removed from tomorrow. The sites will be monitored.
The Seaview recycling station is privately owned and is now closed to the public. Account holders only (and these are mostly businesses) can continue to use the Seaview station.
