You Never Know When A Disaster or Something Untoward may happen!
As did happen on 29th April. We were called in to help for the following 2 weeks to be the "Eyes and Ears" for the Police to help deter unwanted guests and opportunists.
The Ngongotaha Community Patrol have been patrolling Ngongotaha and surrounding areas since July 2004. Our effective membership is now insufficient to cover as many days and nights as we would wish.
We need new volunteers.
Requirements:
• Any age, male or female
• Can be couples / Physically impaired not a problem
• Clean Police record
• Approximately four hours of your time every month
• Must attend at least three trainings per year.
Patrollers are always rostered on in pairs; times are left to the discretion of patrollers. We are in cell phone contact with the Police and have a Police Radio and do NOT leave our vehicle unless specifically asked by Police.
Our main role is PREVENTION and we act solely as the “eyes and ears” for the Police.
Please help us to help you.
Do you think you could become a community patroller and help keep Ngongotaha a safe place to live?
For further information please phone

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?
People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.
This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
