'Haporitanga' means 'the many principles and actions of being a community' and we think it's a great way to express what Neighbourly is.

Remember now that we are in Alert Level 2, the rules have changed a bit.
Here’s what you need to know:
◼️ Face coverings are legally required for everyone 12 years and older.
◼️ Standing isn't allowed on services. Staff won't allow people onto services if they don't believe space is available, so plan ahead and be patient with operators.
◼️ Check in as soon as you board the service.
◼️ Stay home if you're sick. Sitting directly next to someone is allowed. Be mindful that drivers may not stop to collect passengers if all seats are occupied. Dedicated school bus services are exempt from the no standing requirement.

Recycling on windy days

Hi everyone
I just walked around parts of Tawa, where recycling and rubbish day is tomorrow, and noticed lots of wheelie bins out on the kerbside in anticipation of collection. Please try to put the bin out on the day of collection where at all possible, and please secure the lid. This is especially important on windy days as we have at the moment.
Or keep the bin over til the next still day.

I notice lots of unwashed plastics and lids still on milk bottles etc - these can't be recycled unfortunately and need to go to waste collection.

I regularly pick up plastics blowing around and you may have noticed the huge amount of plastics accumulating in Porirua Stream and everywhere else - much of this comes from recycling bins. Much of it ends up in the oceans, and then in the food we eat. Thanks everyone.

Family-owned Auckland print company Soar is flying high, with two of its team winning accolades at the prestigious Pride in Print 2021 awards.

Print apprentice Travis Jordan was named the Print Industry Apprentice of the Year, while Alex Huynh won the Workplace Trainer of the Year. For Travis, the award is an acknowledgement of the time and effort he has put into his craft.

“It’s really special and a reminder that you get out what you put in,” he says. “The award is something I’ll happily carry with me throughout my career.”

It's awesome to see not only one of our apprentices getting recognition, but also the skilled team member who trained him winning an award.
