WAIKANAE'S EMERGENCY HUB ACTIVATION SATURDAY 3RD DECEMBER
How many of you know where your community hubs are?!
For Waikanae Beach it is the Waikanae Baptist Church in Te Moana Road and for us up in Waikanae Central, East and North it is the Waikanae Memorial Hall.
A group of us met Renee Corlett there a few weeks ago and she reiterated that there won't be lots of official looking people waiting for us at the hub in the event of a major emergency, just residents to start with! Some of us will be able to bring skills and resources, some comfort and blankets, some will desperately need help and advice....
Please do come along on Saturday 3rd December - you can be a "victim" or a helper - and find out how you can help -
It will be a great way to see how a community can work together! 😊😊😊
Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.
Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.

Packaging Boxes
Hi,
Does anybody have packaging boxes ( not banana boxes) ? I thought I would ask before I go and purchase them.
Thanks.

Paper Shredding
I will be doing a lot of paper shredding over the next few weeks. Is there anybody who would like the shredded paper. I don't know if you can use it for hamsters and other pets, maybe it could go in your compost.
Just let me know if you want some.
