The Hutt Valley Police, Upper Hutt City Council and Fraser Crescent School are excited to announce that we are working collaboratively over the next few months to install a Painted Environment mural in the public entranceway foyer at the Upper Hutt Police Station.
Before the mural is designed and painted we want your feedback to help inform the mural design concept.
Please take a moment to take our short survey by clicking on the link below:
www.surveymonkey.com...
This survey link expires on October 5th.
Your feedback along with Fraser Crescent school student feedback and the Upper Hutt City Vision will help to inform the mural design.
This Painted Environment project is funded by Upper Hutt City Council and is a commitment to youth development as a strategic priority of Upper Hutt’s city vision.
It supports the New Zealand Police vision and purpose and provides a real and meaningful opportunity for our City’s young people to put classroom learning into context while developing positive relationships in their community.

Have you heard this trick before? A handy hack on how to open OXO cubes is causing a stir online, as it seems many of us have been doing it all wrong.
Forget crumbling up the cube after opening the silver foil packaging - it seems that packaging was actually designed to be flattened. To read more click here.
Simply open up the flaps on the side, flatten them out and then crumble the cube inside the package, turning it into a powder that's a heck of a lot easier to add to your dish.
Did you know this handy trick? Have you been opening the cubes the wrong way your whole life like the rest of us? Will this make cooking for your family a little easier? Share your thoughts in the replies below!

This year Age Concern New Zealand want all New Zealanders to sign up as Age Concern Dignity Champions and stand up for the human rights of older Kiwis.
“There is no excuse for elder abuse, says Stephanie Clare, Age Concern New Zealand Chief Executive. I am appalled that we are still having to deal with cases each day where older people are taken advantage of.
“Just because someone is older it doesn’t mean they are less valuable, have less purpose or should lose basic human rights, the right to make their own choices and respect from those around them.
“Of the cases we see, 75% of alleged abusers are family members, either adult children or partners of adult children and that needs to stop!
“So come on Kiwis we all have a part to play. You can take a stand against ageism and join me by signing up today!” says Stephanie.
An Age Concern Dignity Champion pledges to:
• Reject stereotypes and focus on the uniqueness of every individual
• Speak up when they hear people speaking negatively about growing old
• Have the courage to question practices they feel are disrespectful to older people
• Not patronise older people
• Be patient, polite and friendly
• Have zero tolerance for abuse or neglect
• Build relationships – they combat isolation and loneliness by getting to know the older people in their lives.
