Whats going on?
Interested in whats going on the town boundary at the top of Cambridge road Te Awamutu?
The latest stages of Thorncombe Park Subdivision - 20 new sections with sizes 740sqm to 860sqm
Base Civil have a number of staff from Te Awamutu who are back on the job - they had been making great progress pre lockdown so no major changes to timeframes expected yet with civil works expected to be completed in July this year.
We are trying to minimise the amount of earth moved and at this stage the main earthworks are for the roading - sand is coming in from Pirongia for the base layer.
We have lived in Te Awamutu for 16 years and we have a number of local guys who work for our building company and we are super excited about the way stage 1 has gone and are looking forward to building some great great homes - if you are interested in following progress have a look at :

Best way to use leftovers?
I'm sure you've got some excess ham at home or cold roast potatoes.
What are some of your favourite ways to use leftover food from Christmas day? Share below.
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
