Dogs in Kitchener Park, Feilding
Today one of our Trustees found a professional dog walker allowing her 4 dogs off the lead to defecate in the Makino Stream in Awahuri Forest Kitchener Park. This was in spite of several notices advising that dogs must remain on a lead. One such notice was right in front of her car! She denied any knowledge of knowing this by--law. We hold education programmes for school children around the stream and there are also iwi eel traps in the vicinity. If any one knows who this lady is I would appreciate them advising me. There is a dog park at Manfeild for public use. Awahuri Forest Kitchener Park is a scenic reserve and no-one wants to see dog excrement especially not in the stream where it cannot easily be cleaned up. Thank you Jill Darragh (Chair, AFKP Trust)
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
