This comes after James de Hair, a 15-year-old from Kāpiti College, saved to buy a second-hand phone off Facebook Marketplace in June 2021. Three months later, it stopped receiving a cellular signal, leaving the phone unusable. The seller refused to give James a full refund, so the schoolboy filed a complaint with the disputes tribunal.

There is also a pop-up poppy field on Andrews Avenue from 18-26 April, where the public are welcome to lay poppies and pay their respects.
There will be no civic service in 2022.
FREE Toys, shelving, vases. various things, in front of 191 waddington drive. More stuff will be added up til Sunday.
Please be careful when taking of not breaking the other things that are there.
Folding kid’s buggy/pushchair.
Grandchildren have grown up and it is no longer needed.
Easy to handle, space-saving.
Stain on front and a small rust spot, but otherwise in very good condition.
To be picked up, please!

"Our beautiful endemic and endangered black-billed gull/tarāpuka (Chroicocephalus bulleri). Sometimes I've found them a little confusing to identify as in non-breeding plumage, black-billed gulls can have a two-coloured brownish and black bill and red legs, but they always have a longer, finer bill than a red-billed gull - that said there is also a little variation in the bill sizes. The two species sometimes hang out together as well to make it more confusing. Bird #57 in 2022."
