Hataitai ANZAC Project.

Louise from Hataitai

The aim of this project is to show how world War 1 impacted the Hataitai Community.
A laminated A4 sheet would be placed on the fence or mail box of those houses who had people serving overseas . The poster would give their names and a brief description of their service.
People could walk around the streets and see just how many people from this small area went overseas in this war.
I need permission from those of you who now occupy thses houses to do this.
I will be giving street numbers over the next week. If your address is here could you email me to give a yes or no to taking part.
If anyone is interested in helping with this project in any caoacity I would love to hear from you.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
