They received a $1599 GARDENA SILENO City 250 robot lawnmower and $1000 worth of Resene paints/wood stains, as well as a one-year subscription to NZ Gardener. This year's prizes are up for grabs, so it's time to send in the photos and the stories behind your man caves, she sheds, clever upcycled spaces, potty potting sheds and colourful chicken coops.

We're putting together an article on Kiwis' favourite holiday finds, and would love to hear about any great new places you discovered on your holidays and are happy to share.
It could be a beach you'd never been to before, a walking track you'd never tried, a town that pleasantly surprised you or a particularly good cafe, restaurant or bar. Please feel free to comment here or to message me directly. Please put 'NFP' in your comment or message if you do not want your name or suggestion published.
Thank you very much in advance.

Are you a dog or puppy owner? SPCA are urgently calling on you to vaccinate them against parvovirus.

SPCA New Zealand say:
We’re seeing more and more cases of the highly contagious and potentially fatal canine parvovirus (parvo) around the country as we face a third outbreak in as many years. Parvo can remain on surfaces for up to a year, so dogs are at constant risk if they’re unvaccinated, or if their vaccinations lapse. Please ensure your dogs are protected against this heartbreaking illness, and book your vaccines and boosters as soon as possible. It could be the difference between life and death.

If you're a regular user of John's Track you'll have read our earlier heritage story boards about Spike Milligan Corner, and Philip Myers Park. Since making those, we've been researching other sites of significance in Wadestown. Some of these were once celebrated on a Heritage Trust board outside the library. We're working on replacing it and linking it to a Heritage Trail for you and your family to enjoy walking and learning more about each site, and our local history.
More later. We'll post on Neighbourly each month to let you know how we're going with the Trail. And we hope you'll get in touch to share any family memories you have about Wadestown as it was.

As residents of William Sanders Village, they frequently clock up 12 kilometres in a day, enjoying the charm of their local neighbourhood. Their favourite routes feature stunning harbour and bay views and regular stops at their much-loved local cafés.
“There are so many beautiful walks nearby, It’s such a convenient area to explore,” says Eric.

In the near future, a controversial government bill bars people with terminal illnesses from receiving treatment. Pianist Irina, a Ukrainian refugee, is cared for at home by her son with a dubious mix of natural and illegal remedies. When Irina’s feisty daughter returns from the war and a famous former pupil appears on their doorstep, hope and delusion blur together making us question the morality of fighting for your life and your loved ones.
On at Circa Theatre, 25 January - 23 February 2025.
