Poll: SHAW'S BIRD PARK - THE CHALLENGE

Rudi from Hamilton Lake

I went down to the Shaw's Bird Park today just to satisfy myself that I still value the good things in life. I understand that the World is changing and we are pressured to change with it and in the process probably loose out on preserving things that really should matter to us.
So, here is the challenge, go down to Shaw's Bird Park for a walk about and decide then if we should save this jewel for Hamilton.
Entrance is FREE - The address is 143 Hall Rd, Tamahere 3282

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Derelict Tokanui Hospital site in line for a clean-up

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Derelict Tokanui Hospital buildings will be demolished and contaminated land cleaned up so the site can be offered back to iwi.

The former psychiatric hospital, southeast of Te Awamutu, sits on land taken from Ngāti Maniapoto under the Public Works Act in 1910.
