TVNZ Breakfast show visit to Wadestown Community Centre

Greg Hyland from Highland Park Residents Association (HPPA)

Note: TV live crossover time is now approx. 8:20am on Tues 5th March.

Keen to Support and Save the well-used and well-loved Wadestown Community Centre from WCC sale?

TVNZ Breakfast show cameras are visiting the Wadestown Community Centre (46 Pitt St) between 8am and 8:30am on Tues 5th March for a live chat with the Musicbox Academy music group, Community Centre users and local residents. The live cross to us is likely to be about 8am.

WCC intends to sell the Wadestown Community Centre building and spend the money elsewhere, despite agreeing in 2021 for any sale money to stay in Wadestown to build a new Community Centre in future. Is your Community Centre next in the WCC Fire-sale?

Please come along on Tues 5th March from 8am and show you care. Questions to Greg - 021473499 or hppawgtn@gmail.com

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
