Kulim Park is open
Following a blessing onsite this morning, the carpark is open, the safety fencing is down, and Kulim Park is good to go in time for Christmas!
We still have some finishing touches to do in the new year, including installing shade sails over some of the new playground, planting, and completing some of the shared pathways but we wanted to make sure the community could make the most of these fabulous new facilities over the summer holidays.
Feel free to give us your feedback and make sure to share so all your friends and whānau know about it too. Happy playing!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
