I have recently moved to TA and one of the prettiest and most meaningful walks I've found is at the War Memorial Park.

One of the main memorials, the atomic blast shaped fountain, is due for demolition. But it's one of the intrinsic memorials, specifically mentioned in Sir Sidney Holland (Prime Minister of New Zealand)'s speech when he dedicated the park on the 4th December 1955.

It's not just the sunken cross, or the semi-circular fresco, the park itself is the memorial, as are ALL the memorials in it.

"Te Awamutu and District War Memorial Park, built in proud and grateful memory of those men who served this country in the 1939-1945 war."
- Inscribed on a plaque at the entrance to the park.

This is a memorial for our children and grandchildren, as much as for us and those who went before. We should tell them the true story, which includes horrible things like atomic and nuclear being used as deterrents. With a sound education and a lot of hope, they should learn from the past. Do we have the right to remove a memorial that could open these conversations?

Hi neighbours – Loud Shirt Day is coming up in September and it's time to use your power of LOUD for GOOD.

Izabella was born profoundly deaf and in the four years following her diagnosis, her parents' emotions of shock, being scared and overwhelmed have turned to amazement, surprise and hope - all thanks to Izabella's progress as a hearing and speaking child.

Izabella loves to sing and dance, she enjoys gymnastics, bike rides and playing with her older brothers. What are her superpowers I hear you ask? She's fierce, adventurous and caring!

Register to fundraise and help deaf children like Izabella listen and speak. You can also donate here on Givealittle. Thanks for your support!

My friend Martin Werndle awoke to find his trailer, the covered tool box that fits the whole of the trailer, and all his tools had been stolen from his front garden .He makes his living with these things and some reprehensible lowlife has just decided they wanted them more than he did.
The trailer etc was stolen from Holyoake Crescent Kawerau.
The number plate is W898P, the covered top is made of heavy duty ply and the trailer is specially built and painted grey.
If you know of anyone who has suddenly "aquired" such a trailer and/or building tools, please phone the Police, or Martin Werndle on 0272403735.
