Auckland Pop-Up Book Fair returns after Covid-19 setback
New Zealand Red Cross is teaming up with students to host the Auckland Pop-Up Book Fair this November.
The Book Fair will take place at Rangitoto College on November 6 from 9am to 5pm and November 7 from 10am to 4pm.
“The pop-up book fair is an opportunity for local book-lovers to dig through a huge variety of pre-loved books and find themselves a page-turner they simply won’t be able to put down,” Red Cross spokeswoman Nia Oxburgh said.
“All funds raised help support the valuable work New Zealand Red Cross does, both here in Aotearoa and abroad.”
The 2020 event was cancelled due to COVID-19, but in 2019 the event raised over $7,000 dollars.
“We hope, with the support of the local community, we can make this year just as much of a success,” Oxburgh said.

For most of us, seeing a friendly doggo while out and about instantly brings a smile to our faces. But how do you feel about cafes welcoming pups inside?

Feeding chickens
Hi there, we are going away for the first week of the upcoming school holidays and looking for someone to feed our 2 backyard chickens while we are gone. Is there anyone out there able to help with this? Could be a good way for a young one to earn a bit of holiday pocket money perhaps?
We will provide all the food required, and it only takes about 5mins a day. Plus you’d be welcome to keep the eggs they lay each day for that time too.
Please DM me for more details if you’re interested in helping us out
