Due to the ongoing impacts of COVID-19, commemoration services for Anzac Day will look a little different this year. There will be a scaled-back dawn service to remember the conflicts of our past and present, and to honour those who served.

Public are welcome to attend, but please remember to follow COVID-19 guidance, and do not attend if you are feeling unwell.

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. Find out more

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
