Just donate $50 for adults and $25 for children (under 18) to the Long Bay Great Park Society through their Givealittle page to qualify for your freebie.

This kayak tour is just 20 minutes from downtown Auckland in the Long Bay – Okura Marine Reserve, bordered by protected native bush and regional council reserves, historic buildings, pa sites and natural wonders.

Many rare NZ seabirds can be seen and heard including NZ Dotterel, Variable Oystercatchers and Bar-tailed godwits. Flying mullet and stingrays are often sighted in the shallows of the Okura Estuary and Karepiro Bay, as they cruise under your kayak. Myrtle and Turtle, two resident stingrays, are regularly seen feeding off Dacre Cottage.

Come and enjoy a rare glimpse of what New Zealand was like in the old days. Phone or email with your qualifying code from your Givealittle donation to book your tour.

“Don’t be scared of the bowel screening test – do it for the sake of your family” is the message from respected iwi and community leader Dame Naida Glavish.

Around 100 New Zealanders die from bowel cancer each month, but regular bowel screening every two years can help find cancer early when it can usually be successfully treated.

Dame Naida has done the test herself and says it’s clean and simple to do. You should have been sent a test kit if you live in the Waitemata DHB area, and are; aged 60 to 74, under 60 and were invited onto the bowel screening pilot.

If you think you are eligible and have not been sent a bowel screening test please call 0800 924 432 or visit our website

A brief description from a website: "Cuisenaire rods are an extremely versatile and useful mathematical teaching aid. They can be used for the four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division), but are also great for practising with fractions and proportional reasoning."

Pick up Manly.
