Hundreds of thousands of Kiwis who do not yet have both doses of the Covid-19 vaccine face a tightening of their freedoms on December 3, when the Government moves the entire country into the new “traffic-light” system.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern announced the date on Monday, saying Covid-19 was not going to be eradicated from New Zealand.

“The hard truth is that Delta is here and not going away,” Ardern said.

While Aucklanders will finally see an end to New Zealand’s longest lockdown, those in other parts of the country could face far more restrictions if they have not been fully-vaccinated.

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Wellington has Oriental Bay, Sydney has Bondi, California has Laguna Beach, and then there is Lower Hutt’s Petone waterfront.
If the council were to get traffic off the Esplanade, what would you like to see done in the area? A sports hub, cafes, a hotel, a flash new wharf have all been suggested.… View more

Do I need a new executor?​

Public Trust

Great question. Your executor oversees your will when you pass away, so it’s an important job. If things have changed for you or your executor since the days of cassette tapes and telethons, it might be time to appoint a new one. ​

"We were part of a group of guinea pigs that our family could no longer care for, so now we are looking for a new home together.
We are still getting used to being with people, so don't like to be picked up. Our confidence is slowly improving. We are very cute and great to watch. We will need a large grass area with a weatherproof hutch for day time. We need to come inside at night to spend time with our family, and to help us keep safe from the weather and other animals."

If we sound like the kind of new family member you have been looking for, please get in touch. Remember if you want your pet featured on Neighbourly, email us on yourpet@dompost.co.nz with a recent photo. Please remember to say which suburb you live in.

Today’s the day! McKenzie Baths and Wainuiomata Summer Pool are open for the summer season 🏊

It should come as no surprise we have additional health and safety measures in place in the face of COVID-19 and to reflect Alert Level 2 requirements.

Here are some golden rules for you to follow if you plan to make a trip to take a dip:

✅ Scan in using the NZ COVID tracer app

✅ Keep a two metre distance from others (who are not in your bubble)

❌ Please stay home if you’re feeling unwell – and if you have cold or flu symptoms please get tested!

Our team will be closely monitoring visitor numbers to enforce limits (these vary depending on the size of the facility, but essentially mean we are operating at half-capacity).

Thank you in advance for following the above guidance – it helps us keep everyone safe, and our facilities open for our community to enjoy.
