Covid-19 Alert Level update

Seamus Boyer from Wellington City Council

Kia ora Pōneke, from midday on Wednesday 12 August, Wellington, along with most of New Zealand, will be re-entering Covid-19 Alert Level 2. This will last until midnight on Friday.

It follows the news that in Auckland there are four positive cases of COVID-19 from an unknown source. The Auckland Region will move to Alert Level 3 for the same period.

Here's what we all can do to help:

- Continue or get back to stringent hand hygiene, sneeze and cough into your elbow.​
- If you or a family member are unwell please stay at home and contact Healthline or your GP about getting a test.​
- Practise physical distancing of two metres wherever possible.​
- Consider wearing a mask in public spaces or places where it is hard to physically distance.​

​For more information on health advice or the Alert Levels, please go to: covid19.govt.nz...

We will be updating the Council website and social channels tomorrow. Be kind and stay safe, Wellington. We're all in this together. 💛🖤💛🖤

Council picking on Motorcyclists now

Stewart from Miramar

It's not enough that we pay ACC $500 per year. Now the council want to charge for parking. So much for reducing congestion or saving the planet.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
