Whaitua te Whanganui a Tara Committee is tackling the tough (and smelly!) issues when it comes to water quality and they need your input!
Wastewater getting into streams harms our enjoyment of our streams and harbour. No one wants poos in streams.
The committee really wants to know what you think contributes to our wastewater problem, how we can solve it and who should pay for it.
Your responses will help the Committee develop recommendations for how wastewater should be managed in the future.
Thank you to everyone who took 5 minutes to tell the committee what you think. If you haven’t yet, there’s still a week left to join the conversation: haveyoursay.gw.govt.nz...

Labour will make Matariki New Zealand’s twelfth public holiday if re-elected.
The new winter public holiday would fall at some point during the Matariki period, with an expectation that it would always happen on either a Monday or a Friday.
The exact timing of Matariki shifts every year as it relates to a star cluster reappearing and has traditionally varied between Iwi.
It would be the first new public holiday since the Third Labour Government made Waitangi Day a public holiday in 1973, although then Prime Minister Norman Kirk called it “New Zealand Day”.

Year-13 Wellington College students Logan Forsyth, Joshua Kemp Whimp, and George Parker decided to film a scene from Shakespeare’s Henry IV, Part 1, in a car. The boys were old hands at the competition, having entered every year for the past five years.
The competition was usually done in person, with students performing a scene on a stage. This year, due to Covid-19 bans on gatherings, all submissions were to be made in the video form. The camera had to be static, but the rules didn’t specify it was to be set on-stage. The students threw out their existing scenes, and used the opportunity to stand out by filming in a car in a McDonald's drive-through
For their efforts, the students were awarded the prize for outstanding delivery of the text, and the two actors who showed the strongest and most truthful connection between them. They were also given coveted spots in the SGCNZ 2020 National Shakespeare Schools Production, which teacher Kirsty Hazledine said was “quite an accolade”.

Two well known business have indicated they are struggling and Eftpos transactions are down 19 percent from the same time last year.
Wellington City councillor Simon Woolf says the outlook for Wellington’s Lambton Quay is so bad he is moving his family photography business from the street after more than 60 years.
Sam Cranfield, whose wife Val established the Cranfields gift store now situated off Lambton Quay, told councillors at a meeting on Thursday the couple were liable for $750,000 if the business went bust, something he was very concerned would happen.

We just had our pohutakawa cut down, there’s some nice logs here for next years fire. Will likely need a bit more cutting to size. Free to someone who will take the lot! Hopefully the photos give you a sense of the size of the two piles of wood. Pick up is Houghton Bay.
