Room for Rent!

Tayla from Stoke

Have posted on both TradeMe and Facebook, so thought I would try my luck here too.

Rent: $275pw + $8pw Broadband. Water/power halved monthly.
1x room with en-suite available in apartment complex w/ access to gym and pool.
I’m looking for a female flatmate of similar age to live with me. (20s/30s). The lease is until January 2025 with the potential to extend this after in another unit.
Note: This is not a party house. Must be clean and tidy and reliable with rent 😊 ideally some rental history and references would be good. Place is furnished entirely (couch, king size bed, wardrobe etc) by the owner and I have provided my own kitchen furnishings (air fryer, slow cooker, cutlery, plates etc) which can be used. Water & power is charged monthly (going halves). Cleaning supplies halved, toilet paper separate due to en-suites. Bond is $1100 with one weeks’ rent ($275). If you have a vehicle, it’ll have to be parked in the visitors’ parks to the back/side of the complex or outside of the complex due to there only being a limited number of parks directly outside the apartments. Laundry/dryers on site.
About me: I am a 25 (almost 26) year old who works full time as a support worker and studies part-time in law. I like a pretty chilled & quiet environment, but love an occasional glass of wine at the end of the night. I love to cook and relax, also like to walk and gym when I can. Ideally, I’d love someone I can be friends with as opposed to just flatmates 😊 a safe and secure environment for everyone is paramount to me
Get in contact if you’re interested and we’ll go from there!

Price: $275

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
