A POEM TO PONDER
GRACE LANDS HERETAUNGA & TRENTHAM
Heretaunga where sports stars are renowned
World class institute where talent is found.
From rugby to cricket, the athletes train
Pushing themselves to achieve the highest gain.
Trentham, famous for its racing ground
Where horses gallop with speed unbound.
A movie production complex adds to the fame
Creating masterpieces with talent and game.
Military encampment with soldiers in line
Protecting the country with courage and shine.
Trentham Park is a great green memorial
Activities for people and dogs that is memorable.
Growing commercial importance with businesses around
Making progress with developments profound.
And when the day is done and the sun settles low
Heretaunga and Trentham are both stealing the show.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
