We've appointed AECOM to coordinate and manage the construction of the new Naenae Pool!

The next steps are geotechnical testing and site preparation, and early next year the project team will be working with the community on pool design. We'll also be looking at new sustainable technologies which will limit the impact of the pool on the environment.

All workers on the project will be paid at least the Living Wage and we'll be looking for opportunities for local companies and service providers.

Friday Feathered Friend: Christmas Turkey

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

Hi Neighbourly folk, this week something a bit different from Louise Thomas, who as well as taking a good picture can tell a good yarn.

"Continuing with the Christmas theme, this seems like a face only a mother could love. Like somehow evolution decided to put the turkey's guts on the outside of his neck, and what even is that dangly appendix bit between his eyes? Wiki says the longer your snood the more likely you are to successfully mate. No wonder he looks grumpy with all that going on on his face (although that could also be the time of year - December and American accents are known to cause extreme stress to his species). Male turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) in full sail. Staglands."
