Visit us at the A&P Show, Saturday 7 December 2024

The Team from Whangarei District Council

We'll be bringing some of our stars from last year and a bunch of new stuff including Max the education dog (shown below), a super-cool kids' play-table, free fuit 🍎🍇🍌🍓🍏, and photo opportunities.

It's also a great place to stop by and have a conversation about what matters to you, what we're up to lately and how you can Have Your Say in the community. Find us near the main entrance at Barge Park Showgrounds, 9:00am until 4:30pm.

🚌 PS: You can catch a FREE bus to get there. All CityLink buses will be free on the day thanks to Northland Regional Council, and we're also providing a free show-bus from the Rose Street bus station.

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Do you think you know the answer? Simply 'Like' this post if you know the answer and the big reveal will be posted in the comments at 2pm on the day!

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
