Hello to Neighbourly from Wadestown's Village Green Trust!
Our Wadestown community know us well, from our work to date on building John’s Track and the gardens around Wadestown Library. We've now set up this page on Neighbourly, to keep you in touch with our latest Wadestown heritage project...
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.

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
