Who's setting off fireworks tonight?! ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ’ฅ

Fireworks are a ton of fun but carry real risks that need to be taken seriously. If you plan on lighting some here's some tips to keep everyone in your community safe and happy.

โŒ 1. Never light fireworks in dry or windy conditions.

๐Ÿ”ฅ 2. Only use fireworks in wide open areas, away from flammable items such as trees, grasses, gas tanks, and wood.

๐Ÿ’ฆ 3. Keep a bucket of water or hose nearby.

๐Ÿ‘ง 4. Children should never light fireworks themselves and need to be supervised closely at all times.

๐Ÿงฐ 5. Keep all unlit fireworks in a secure bag or container away from any source of fire until they are ready to be used.

๐Ÿ“ž 6. Be considerate and let neighbours know if you're planning to set off fireworks. Aim to finish at a reasonable time.

๐Ÿฑ 7. Keep pets comfortable and secure inside. The loud booms and flashing lights can easily scare them off.

๐Ÿฎ 8. Avoid lighting off fireworks around farm animals and be aware of any newborns or elderly neighbours who may also be affected. If possible, change locations to somewhere that minimises any disturbances.

๐ŸŒฟ 9. Be a tidy Kiwi and let's work together to keep New Zealand beautiful! Clean up any any rubbish and leave your spot better than you found it.

Switch to LEDs for the climate

Andrew Caseley from Gen Less

Kahutara Primary School in Featherston is switching to LEDs. All LEDs are Gen Less bulbs as they use less energy, which ultimately helps halt climate change. If we all got on board and switched now it would make a huge difference

Being a Canadian living in NZ, I not only celebrate and decorate, but I encourage Halloween for all ages. I grew up trick or treating and absolutely LOVED it. Itโ€™s a fun night for everyone involved. I was so happy to have so many kids last year - apple bobbing was a monster smash!!!!

If youโ€™re a parent looking to take your kids out, bring them by for a treat!! I have chocolate - and this year something different up my sleeve for kids with awesome costumes (I love the effort put in)! For you adults - bring your travel mug for some halloWINE. If it doesnโ€™t go Iโ€™ll be forced to eat and drink it all myself - not ideal with summer on the way!!

See you THURSDAY night!! ๐ŸŽƒ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐ŸŒ›๐Ÿ‘น PM me if you need more details!
